Search for sub-millicharged particles at J-PARC

Abstract: We studied the feasibility of an experiment searching for sub-millicharged particles (χs) using 30 GeV proton fixed-target collisions at J-PARC. The detector is composed of two layers of stacked scintillator bars and PMTs and is proposed to be installed 280 m from the target. The main background is a random coincidence between two layers due to dark counts in PMTs, which can be reduced to a negligible level using the timing of the proton beam. With NPOT = 1022 which corresponds to running the experiment for th… Show more

“…There are several proposed high-luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) era experiments targeting LLP searches, such as MATHUSLA [24,25], CODEX-b [26], FASER-2 [27,28], ANUBIS [29], FORMOSA [30]; as well as SHADOWS [31], a beam-dump experiment at the CERN SPS. There are also experimental proposals outside CERN, such as SUBMET [32] at J-PARC and LUXE [33] at the DESY XFEL facility.…”

“…When compared with future projections, although the FORMOSA detector [12] to operate in the FPF is the leading proposal based on its projection, the FLArE search based on electron scatterings could provide an independent measurement method for a wide range of masses for mCP with charges O(10 −3 -10 −1 ). It can also have better sensitivity in the mass range above ∼ 4 GeV than proposed FerMINI [38] and SUBMET [118,119] detectors. In the high-mass regime, FLArE is complementary to the sensitivity of milliQan [28][29][30][31], although it has a weaker sensitivity for m χ (40-50) GeV.…”
