However, at the one-loop level, the Z' coupling to electrons or quarks can be induced via the \\gamma -Z' kinetic mixing, which is generated through the loop involving the muon and tau lepton. This loophole has important experimental consequences since it opens up new possibilities, in particular for the complementary searches of the Z' in the ongoing NA64 and incoming dark photon experiments with high-energy electrons. An extension of the model able to explain relic Dark Matter density is also discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-01-31T13:47:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gauge boson", "explain relic dark matter density", "incoming dark photon experiments", "third lepton generations", "important experimental consequences" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
