Search for the Dark Photon and the Dark Higgs Boson at Belle
Original language description
The dark photon A' and the dark Higgs boson h' are hypothetical constituents featured in a number of recently proposed dark sector models. Assuming prompt decays of both dark particles, we search for their production in the so-called Higgstrahlung channel e(+)e(-) -> A'h', with h' -> A'A'. We investigate ten exclusive final states with A' -> e(+)e(-), mu(+)mu(-), or pi(+)pi(-) in the mass ranges 0.1 GeV/c(2) < m(A') < 3.5 GeV/c(2) and 0.2 GeV/c(2) < m(h') < 10.5 GeV/c(2). We also investigate three inclusive final states 2(e(+)e(-))X, 2(mu(+)mu(-))X, and (e(+)e(-))(mu(+)mu(-))X, where X denotes a dark photon candidate detected via missing mass, in the mass ranges 1.1 GeV/c(2) < m(A') < 3.5 GeV/c(2) and 2.2 GeV/c(2) < m(h') < 10.5 GeV/c(2). Using the entire 977 fb(-1) data set collected by Belle, we observe no significant signal. We obtain individual and combined 90% credibility level upper limits on the branching fraction times the Born cross section, B x sigma(Born), on the Born cross
