Why it is here

Turns the recoil fit into a target for dark-photon searches at lifetime and energy-frontier experiments.

Machine-assisted summary

The authors realize endothermic scalar scattering in a broken hidden-U(1) model, identify parameters that reproduce the relic abundance and event, and compare the required dark-photon kinetic mixing with beam-dump and collider limits.
