Funded Activity Summary

Light new particles at electron-positron colliders. This project aims to perform new searches for light feebly interacting particles. The existence of these particles can address long-standing open problems within the Standard Model of Particle Physics, such as the nature of dark matter or mysteries surrounding the origin of the Higgs mass. This project aims to use the unprecedented dataset of the Belle II electron-positron collider experiment and new theoretical techniques to reveal the existence of light new particles, placing Australian researchers in a position to lead a major discovery of new physics phenomena to complete the theory of the universe at the smallest scale. Predictions for future experiments at high and low collision energies will also be developed.
