The light scalar and gauge bosons are very common in the beyond standard model scenarios such as the low-energy $U(1)_{B−L}$ model and axion-like particles. Such light particles can be searched for in some of high-intensity experiments for instance the DUNE experiment. They can be produced from the meson decays, or from the gauge interactions. The can also play important roles in the electron-nucleus scattering processes such as the P2 experiment. Produced abundantly in the compact stars such as the Sun, supernovae and neutron stars, they will take away energy or have effects on the cooling and thermal conductivity of neutron stars. Brief CV: Dr. Yongchao Zhang, Associate Professor at Southeast University, got his Ph.D. from Peking University in 2014. He was once a visiting scholar at University of Maryland and Institute of Theoretical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a postdoctor at Université Libre de Bruxelles and Washington University in St. Louis. He is mainly interested in beyond standard model phenomenology and relevant astrophysics and cosmology, such as neutrino physics, axion physics, and the interplay of particle physics and astrophysics.
