Description

Elucidating the nature of dark matter remains a central challenge in fundamental physics. A growing interest in light (sub-GeV) dark matter consisting of new particles coupling only feebly to ordinary matter has recently emerged. Low-energy, high luminosity colliders such as BABAR are ideally suited to probe these possibilities. In this talk, we will review searches for dark sectors and light dark matter performed at BABAR. These measurements demonstrate the importance of B-factories in fully exploring dark matter and light BSM physics.
