Dark sector searches at accelerators
There may be a hidden set of particles that barely interacts with ordinary matter, connected by a weak link such as a dark photon. Accelerators can make such particles and see them decay or disappear.
Why it matters
Light hidden particles below the GeV scale are a major target untested by high-energy colliders.
