K7.00001: Theory and Motivations of Dark Sector Dark Matter and Forces Invited Speaker: Philip Schuster We present the theory and motivations underlying "dark" or "hidden" sector dark matter and new force scenarios. Dark sector scenarios with sub-GeV mass scales have attracted particular attention in the past several years, motivated in part by findings from direct detection, satellite, and LHC experiments, as well as precision measurements. Moreover, these scenarios offer some of the simplest and least explored possibilities for dark matter. As such, sub-GeV dark sector scenarios have become the focus of a broad and growing international program of experiments. [Preview Abstract] |

K7.00002: Experimental Searches for Dark Sector Phenomena Invited Speaker: Jim Alexander We summarize the state of experimental searches for Dark Sector dark matter, focussing on current and planned experiments that look for evidence of dark photon production. The accessible dark photon masses range from about 1 MeV to about 1 GeV, cover several orders of magnitude in the dimensionless coupling constant to normal matter. Experiments include fixed target and collider experiments, seeking inclusive or exclusive final state signatures, produced from either leptonic and hadronic initial states. [Preview Abstract] |
