Cosmological constraint on dark photon from N eff
Abstract A new U (1) gauge symmetry is the simplest extension of the Standard Model and has various theoretical and phenomenological motivations. In this paper, we study the cosmological constraint on the MeV scale dark photon. After the neutrino decoupling era at T = O(1) MeV, the decay and annihil...
