The hypothesis of the existence of a secluded gauge sector with manifestations at low energies can be tested at low and medium energy e+e- colliders, such as DAFNE.Some signatures are very straightforward and can be relatively easily…
We present recent results obtained by the KLOE-2 Collaboration at the DAPHNE e+e- collider. The first class of results concerns search for dark forces at the scale of 1 GeV in associated production of gamma and the U boson, in search for…
Dark Matter and Dark Energy are two of the most fundamental open questions in physics today. The existence of a light dark-force mediator has been hypothesized as a possible explanation for several unexplained physical phenomena. A new…
We searched for evidence of a Higgsstrahlung process in a secluded sector, leading to a final state with a dark photon U and a dark Higgs boson h', with the KLOE detector at DAFNE. We investigated the case of h' lighter than U, with U…
Direct searches of dark matter are performed at accelerator facilities. The existence of a new vector boson has been postulated in different scenarios where in the most basic scheme the coupling to the SM can be achieved via a kinetic…
One of the basic motivations of the KLOE and KLOE-2 collaborations is the test of fundamental symmetries and the search for phenomena beyond the Standard Model via the hadronic and leptonic decays of ground-state mesons and via their…
The basic motivation of the KLOE-2 experiment is the test of fundamental symmetries and Quantum Mechanics coherence of the neutral kaon system, and the search for phenomena beyond the Standard Model in the hadronic and leptonic decays of…
The existence of a light dark force mediator has been tested with the KLOE detector at DAPHNE. This particle, called U, is searched for using the decay chain phi-->etaU, eta-->pi+pi-pi0, U-->e+e-. No evidence is found in 1.5 fb-1 of data.…
A review of the recent results obtained by the KLOE experiment at DAFNE concerning the physics of low mass mesons is presented.
The KLOE experiment at DAPHNE has collected ~ 450 pb-1 of e+e- collisions at center of mass energy W~1.02 GeV. Preliminary results are presented for the most recent measurements: limit on the BR(Ks->3pi0), BR of the Ke3 decay of the Ks and…
The DA$\Phi$NE $\Phi$-factory is an ideal place to search for forces beyond the Standard Model. By using the KLOE detector, limits on U-boson coupling $\varepsilon^2$ of the order of $10^{-5} \div 10^{-7}$ and on the $\alpha_{\rm D} \times…
Following the many contributions, KLOE-2 has done to Dark Matter (DM) searches, an alternative model, where the Dark Force mediator is a hypothetical leptophobic B boson, in contra-position to the U boson or "dark photon", is investigated.…
This paper describes the current neutral Kaon dataset and physics measurements of KLOE at DAFNE. A brief discussion on the prospects for detector upgrades and analysis of other K0 rare decays is also included.
New fundamental particles, charged under new gauge groups and only weakly coupled to the standard sector, could exist at fairly low energy scales. In this article we study a selection of such models, where the secluded group either contains…
The goal of the KLOE-2 experiment operating at the upgraded DA{\Phi}NE e+e-collider is to collect an integrated luminosity of about 20 fb-1 during 3-4 years of running. Measurements using the KLOE-2 apparatus equipped with the inner…
We explore constraints on gauge bosons of a weakly coupled $U(1)_{B-L}$, $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_e}$, $U(1)_{L_e-L_\tau}$ and $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$. To do so we apply the full constraining power of experimental bounds derived for a hidden photon of…
The most recent results from the KLOE experiment are presented, covering: the measurement of the running fine-structure constant alpha_em,the Dalitz plot measurement of eta to pi+pi-pi0, the search of a U boson, tests of discrete symmetries…
The recent interest in a light gauge boson in the framework of an extra U(1) symmetry motivates searches in the mass range below 1 GeV. We present a search for such a particle, the dark photon, in ${\rm e^+ e^-}\rightarrow {\rm U}\gamma$,…
Considering the physics potential of an e-e- collider in the TeV energy range, we indicate a few interesting examples for exotic processes and discuss the standard model backgrounds. Focussing on pair production of weak gauge bosons, we…
High-energy particle physics experiments allow for the possible existence of a new light, very weakly coupled, neutral gauge boson (the U boson). This one permits for light (spin-1/2 or spin-0) particles to be acceptable Dark Matter…
