A class of models of dark sectors consider new very weak interaction between the ordinary and dark matter transmitted by U(1) gauge bosons A (dark photons) mixing with our photons. If such As exist, they could be searched for in a light-shining-through-a-wall experiment with a high energy electron beam from the CERN SPS. The proposed search scheme suggests detection of the e+e- pairs produced in the A -> e+e- decay with a very small opening angle. Coordinate chambers based on the thin-wall drift tubes with a minimal material budget and a two-hit resolution for e+ and e- tracks separated by more than 0.5 mm are considered as an option for detecting such pairs.

We are building an experiment to search for dark matter in the form of dark photons in the nano- to milli-eV mass range. This experiment is the electromagnetic dual of magnetic detector dark radio experiments. It is also a frequency-time dual experim
ent in two ways: We search for a high-Q signal in wide-band data rather than tuning a high-$Q$ resonator, and we measure electric rather than magnetic fields. In this paper we describe a pilot experiment using room temperature electronics which demonstrates feasibility and sets useful limits to the kinetic coupling $epsilon sim 10^{-12}$ over 50--300 MHz. With a factor of 2000 increase in real-time spectral coverage, and lower system noise temperature, it will soon be possible to search a wide range of masses at 100 times this sensitivity. We describe the planned experiment in two phases: Phase-I will implement a wide band, 5-million channel, real-time FFT processor over the 30--300 MHz range with a back-end time-domain optimal filter to search for the predicted $Qsim 10^6$ line using low-noise amplifiers. We have completed spot frequency calibrations using a biconical dipole antenna in a shielded room that extrapolate to a $5 sigma$ limit of $epsilonsim 10^{-13}$ for the coupling from the dark field, per month of integration. Phase-II will extend the search to 20 GHz using cryogenic preamplifiers and new antennas.
In this paper we consider the process of subthreshold electron-positron pairs creation in the region of laser conversion. The total number of positrons and their distribution are obtained. This phenomena is offered for use as a good test to examine n

One of the interesting portals linking a dark sector and the standard model (SM) is the kinetic mixing between the SM $U(1)_Y$ field with a new dark photon $A$ from a $U(1)_{A}$ gauge interaction. Stringent limits have been obtained for the kinetic m
ixing parameter $epsilon$ through various processes. In this work, we study the possibility of searching for a dark photon interaction at a circular $e^+e^-$ collider through the process $e^+ e^-to gamma A^{prime *} to gamma mu^+mu^-$. We find that the constraint on $epsilon^2$ for dark photon mass in the few tens of GeV range, assuming that the $mu^+mu^-$ invariant mass can be measured to an accuracy of $0.5%m_{A}$, can be better than $3times 10^{-6}$ for the proposed CEPC with a ten-year running at 3$sigma$ (statistic) level, and better than $2times 10^{-6}$ for FCC-ee with even just one-year running at $sqrt{s} = 240$ GeV, better than the LHC and other facilities can do in a similar dark photon mass range. For FCC-ee, running at $sqrt{s}=160$ GeV, the constraint can be even better.
Calorimeters with silicon detectors have many unique features and are proposed for several world-leading experiments. We discuss the tests of the first three 18x18 cm$^2$ layers segmented into 1024 pixels of the technological prototype of the silicon
-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter for a future $e^+e^-$ collider. The tests have beem performed in November 2015 at CERN SPS beam line.
We demonstrate that individual electron-hole pairs are resolved in a 1 cm$^2$ by 4 mm thick silicon crystal (0.93 g) operated at $sim$35 mK. One side of the detector is patterned with two quasiparticle-trap-assisted electro-thermal-feedback transitio
n edge sensor (QET) arrays held near ground potential. The other side contains a bias grid with 20% coverage. Bias potentials up to $pm$ 160 V were used in the work reported here. A fiber optic provides 650~nm (1.9 eV) photons that each produce an electron-hole ($e^{-} h^{+}$) pair in the crystal near the grid. The energy of the drifting charges is measured with a phonon sensor noise $sigma$ $sim$0.09 $e^{-} h^{+}$ pair. The observed charge quantization is nearly identical for $h^+$s or $e^-$s transported across the crystal.
