Preliminary results of antiproton experiment may provide clues in search for dark matter

Last week, at the biennial ICHEP conference, the AMBER experiment presented results from its first data-taking period. Taken in 2023, these results show preliminary plots of the antiproton’s production cross section—the probability that antiprotons are produced when a beam of protons interacts with a helium target. Knowing more about how antiprotons are produced will help improve the sensitivity of searches for dark matter. Last week, at the biennial ICHEP conference, the AMBER experiment presented results from its first data-taking period.
