Sub-GeV light dark matter often requires new light mediators, such as a dark $Z$ boson in the $L_\mu - L_\tau$ gauge theory. We study the search potential for such a $Z^\prime$ boson via the process $\mu e^- \to \mu e^- X$, with $X$…
We examine the possibility that dark matter may be the manifestation of dark forces of a hidden sector, i.e. "Dark Force = Dark Matter." As an illustrative and minimal example we consider the hidden SU(2)_h x U(1)_h gauge group. The hidden…

Ultra-light hidden-photon dark matter produces an oscillating electric field in the early Universe plasma, which in turn induces an electric current in its ionized component whose dissipation results in heat transfer from the dark matter to…
Axion-like fields heavier than about $10^{-27}$eV are expected to oscillate in the radiation dominated epoch when the Hubble parameter drops below their mass. Considering the Chern-Simons coupling with a dark gauge boson, large amount of…
