We propose to search the monophoton events at the BESIII detector and future Super Tau Charm Factory to probe the sub-GeV dark photon decay into lighter dark matter. We compute the cross section due to the dark photon associated a standard model photon production, and study the corresponding standard model irreducible/reducible backgrounds. By using the data about 17 fb$^{-1}$ collected at the BESIII detector since 2011, we derive new leading limits of the mixing strength $varepsilon$, $varepsilonlesssim(1.1-1.6)times 10^{-4}$, in the mass range of 0.04 GeV $lesssim m_{A^prime} lesssim$ 3 GeV. With 30 ab$^{-1}$ data, STCF running at $sqrt{s} = 2$ GeV, can probe $varepsilon$ down to 5.1$times 10^{-6}$ when $m_{A^prime}=1$ GeV. For models of scalar and fermionic light thermal dark matter production via dark photon, we present the constrains on the dimensionless dark matter parameter $y=varepsilon^2alpha_D(m_chi/m_{A^prime})^4$ as function of the DM mass $m_{chi}$ at BESIII and future STCF, conventionally assuming the dark coupling constant $alpha_D=0.5$ and $m_{A^prime}=3 m_{chi}$. We find that BESIII can exclude model of scalar, Majorana, and pseudo-Dirac (with a small splitting) DM for the mass region 0.03$sim$1 GeV, 0.04$sim$1 GeV and 0.4$sim$1 GeV respectively. For values $alpha_Dlesssim 0.005$, combining the results from 2 GeV STCF with 30 ab$^{-1}$ data and BaBar, one can exclude the above three DM models in the mass region 0.001 GeV $lesssim m_{chi} lesssim$ 1 GeV.

Motivated by the ATLAS and CMS announcements of the excesses of di-photon events, we discuss the production and decay processes of di-photon resonance at future $e^+e^-$ colliders. We assume that the excess of the di-photon events at the LHC is expla
ined by a scalar resonance decaying into a pair of photons. In such a case, the scalar interacts with standard model gauge bosons and, consequently, the production of such a scalar is possible at the $e^+e^-$ colliders. We study the production of the scalar resonance via the associated production with photon or $Z$, as well as via the vector-boson fusion, and calculate the cross sections of these processes. We also study the backgrounds, and discuss the detectability of the signals of scalar production with various decay processes of the scalar resonance. We also consider the case where the scalar resonance has an invisible decay mode, and study how the invisible decay can be observed at the $e^+e^-$ colliders.
Here we present the latest results of the charged Lepton Flavor Violation process searches at the BESIII experiment in the decay of $J/psi$ to $emu$, using $(225.3pm2.8)times10^6$ $J/psi$ events collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collid
er. An upper limit on the branching fraction of $B(J/psi rightarrow emu)<1.6times10^{-7}$ (90$%$ C.L.) is obtained. The prospects and challenges with the future data are also discussed based on MC simulation.
Searches for dark photons provide serendipitous discovery potential for other types of vector particles. We develop a framework for recasting dark photon searches to obtain constraints on more general theories, which includes a data-driven method for
determining hadronic decay rates. We demonstrate our approach by deriving constraints on a vector that couples to the $B!-!L$ current, a leptophobic $B$ boson that couples directly to baryon number and to leptons via $B$-$gamma$ kinetic mixing, and on a vector that mediates a protophobic force. Our approach can easily be generalized to any massive gauge boson with vector couplings to the Standard Model fermions, and software to perform any such recasting is provided at https://gitlab.com/philten/darkcast .
In the Standard Model there are several canonical examples of pure leptonic processes involving the muon, the electron and the corresponding neutrinos which are connected by the crossing symmetry: i) the decay of muon, ii) the inverse muon decay, and
iii) the annihilation of a muon and an electron into two neutrinos. Although the first two reactions have been observed and measured since long ago, the third process, resulting in the invisible final state, has never been experimentally tested. It may go either directly, or, at low energies, via the annihilation of a muon and an electron from an atomic bound state, called muonium (M=mu^+e^-). The Mto u_mu u_e decay is expected to be a very rare process, with the branching fraction predicted to be Br(Mto u_mu u_e) = 6.6 10^{-12} with respect to the ordinary muon decay rate. Using the reported experimental results on precision measurements of the positive muon lifetime by the MuLan Collaboration, we set the first limit Br(M to invisible) < 5.7 10^{-6}, while still leaving a big gap of about six orders of magnitude between this bound and the predictions. To improve substantially the limit, we proposed to perform an experiment dedicated to the sensitive search for the Mto invisible decay. A feasibility study of the experimental setup shows that the sensitivity of the search for this decay mode in branching fraction Br(Mto invisible) at the level of 10^{-12} could be achieved. If the proposed search results in a substantially higher branching fraction than predicted, say Br(M to invisible) < 10^{-10}, this would unambiguously indicate the presence of new physics. We point out that such a possibility may occur due the muonium-mirror muonium conversion in the mirror matter model. A result in agreement with the Standard Model prediction would be a clean check of the pure leptonic bound state annihilation.
The lepton flavor violating process $J/psito ll (l eq l)$ serves as an ideal place to probe the unparticle theory. Such process can only occur at loop level in the Standard model (SM), so that should be very suppressed, by contrast in unparticle scen
ario, it happens at tree level and its contribution may be sizable for practical measurement. Moreover, the BESIII will offer the largest database on $J/psi$ which makes more accurate measurements possible. Furthermore, for such purely leptonic decays background is relatively low and signal would be cleaner. Our work carefully investigates the possibility of observing such processes from both theoretical and experimental aspects.
