The experiment PADME is installed at the Beam Test Facility of the INFN Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati and its main goal its to search for a light boson A′ associated to a broken U(1) gauge symmetry (usually called dark photon) acting as a neutral portal between the visible and the dark sector.
PADME has collected data in two runs. The first one used a secondary positron beam, but the...
The measurement of the muon g-2 presently exhibits a 3.5$\sigma$ discrepancy from the Standard Model prediction. In the next years, it will be measured at Fermilab and J-PARC with even higher precision. Given this experimental effort, it is extremely important to reduce also the error on the theoretical prediction, which is dominated by the uncertainty on the hadronic contribution...
