Leptophobic Boson Searches

ORAL

Abstract

The GlueX data set has the potential to improve the sensitivity to leptophobic bosons, including the so called B boson which couples to baryon number, by a factor of O(100) between 450 and 900MeV. We present the expected reach of the limits on the coupling of $\gamma p->pB$ from the data already taken in Spring 2016 and of the full data set. These results will also set limits on other dark sector models and motivate ep-$>$pB searches at CLAS.
