${}^8$Be Decay Anomaly and Light $Z'$

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2019-05-14 v1

Abstract

In this proceedings, we discuss a light (17 MeV) ZZ' solution to the anomaly observed in the decay of Beryllium-8 by the Atomki collaboration. We detail an anomaly free model with minimal particle content which can satisfy all other experimental constraints with gauge couplings O(104)\mathcal{O}(10^{-4}).
