Abstract

The ATOMKI Collaboration (Debrecen, Hungary) observed an anomaly in the angular correlation of e+e− pairs emitted by Internal Pair Creation (IPC) in 8Be, 4He and 12C nuclear transitions. This anomaly can be explained introducing a new neutral boson of ∼ 17MeV mass, now named X17. The Positron Annihilation into Dark Matter Experiment (PADME) based at the National Laboratories of Frascati (LNF), was designed and constructed to search for dark photons A in the interaction between positrons, provided by the local Beam Test Facility, and electrons of a fixed target. In order to probe the existence of the new X17 particle, PADME detector has been modified and a new data-taking run has been undertaken.
