摘要:

我们基于涉及轻暗物质和/或中微子的相互作用,提出了可同时容纳 MiniBooNE 类电子低能超出与 MicroBooNE 光子低能超出的新解决方案。该方案的新颖之处在于利用由原子核/核子与中微子和/或暗物质之间通过交换轻媒介子发生的 2 到 3 散射过程所产生的光子。我们发现,在媒介子与轻暗物质的耦合和质量参数空间中存在可行区域,能够同时解释观测到的超出,并与当前实验约束保持一致。我们进一步强调,这些情景可利用多个正在进行的实验即将获得的数据进行检验。

英文摘要:

We propose new solutions to accommodate both the MiniBooNE electron-like and MicroBooNE photon low-energy excesses, based on interactions involving light dark matter and/or neutrinos. The novelty of our proposal lies in the utilization of a photon arising from 2-to-3 scattering processes between a nucleus/nucleon and a neutrino and/or dark matter via exchanges of light mediators. We find that viable regions exist in the coupling and mass parameter space of the mediators and light dark matter that can simultaneously explain the observed excesses and remain consistent with current experimental constraints. We further highlight that these scenarios can be tested with upcoming data from various ongoing experiments.
