Dark matter at the SHiP experiment

We study prospects of dark matter searches in the SHiP experiment. SHiP (Search for Hidden Particles) is the recently proposed fixed target experiment which will exploit the high-intensity beam of 400 GeV protons from the CERN SPS. In addition to the hidden sector detector, SHiP will be equipped wit...

description We study prospects of dark matter searches in the SHiP experiment. SHiP (Search for Hidden Particles) is the recently proposed fixed target experiment which will exploit the high-intensity beam of 400 GeV protons from the CERN SPS. In addition to the hidden sector detector, SHiP will be equipped with the nu_tau detector, which presumably would be sensitive to dark matter particles. We describe appropriate production and detection channels and estimate SHiP's sensitivity for a scalar dark matter coupled to the Standard model through the vector mediator.
