Searching for Muonic Force Carriers with ATLAS

• Enrique Kajomovitz Must (Technion, Israel Institute of Technology)

Muonic Force Carriers are a possible manifestation of Physics Beyond the Standard Model. These new particles have flavor-specific couplings, they couple to the Standard Model only through muons, and could be part of Dark Matter or act as mediators between the Standard Model and a Dark Sector. Muonic Force Carriers potentially explain the observed inconsistency of the muon anomalous magnetic moment. In this talk, we will discuss how the ATLAS experiment can be used as a muon-beam fixed target experiment to search for Muonic Force Carriers.
