S.We present the measurement of the intrinsic hadronic contamination at the CERN SPS H4 beamline configured to transport electrons and positrons at 100 GeV/c. The analysis, performed using data collected by the NA64-e experiment in 2022, is based on calorimetric measurements, exploiting the different interaction mechanisms of electrons and hadrons in the NA64 detector. We determined the contamination by comparing the results obtained using the nominal electron/positron beamline configuration with those from a dedicated setup, in which only hadrons impinged on the detector. We also obtained an estimate of the relative protons, anti-protons and pions yield by exploiting the different absorption probabilities of these particles in matter. We cross-checked our results with a dedicated Monte Carlo simulation for the hadron production at the primary T2 target, finding a good agreement with the experimental measurements.Ítem Search for a light Z′ in the Lμ-Lτ scenario with the NA64-e experiment at CERN(American Physical Society, 2022-08) Andreev, Yu.

Yu.; Ulloa, P.; Vasilishin, B.I.; Vasquez Arenas, G.; Volkov, P.V.; Volkov, V. Yu.; Voronchikhin, I.The extension of Standard Model made by inclusion of additional U(1) gauge Lμ-Lτ symmetry can explain the difference between the measured and the predicted value of the muon magnetic moment and solve the tension in B meson decays. This model predicts the existence of a new, light Z′ vector boson, predominantly coupled to second and third generation leptons, whose interaction with electrons is due to a loop mechanism involving muons and taus. In this work, we present a rigorous evaluation of the upper limits in the Z′ parameter space, obtained from the analysis of the data collected by the NA64-e experiment at CERN SPS, that performed a search for light dark matter with 2.84×1011 electrons impinging with 100 GeV on an active thick target. The resulting limits touch the muon g-2 preferred band for values of the Z′ mass of order of 1 MeV, while the sensitivity projections for the future high-statistics NA64-e runs demonstrate the power of the electrons/positron beam approach in this theoretical scenario. © 2022 authors.

Yu.; Voronchikhin, I.; Zamora Saá, J.A search for a new Z′ gauge boson associated with (un)broken B-L symmetry in the keV-GeV mass range is carried out for the first time using the missing-energy technique in the NA64 experiment at the CERN SPS. From the analysis of the data with 3.22×1011 electrons on target collected during 2016-2021 runs, no signal events were found. This allows us to derive new constraints on the Z′-e coupling strength, which, for the mass range 0.3mZ′ 100 MeV, are more stringent compared to those obtained from the neutrino-electron scattering data. © 2022 authors.
