Prospects on the detection of solar dark photons by the International Axion Observatory 2024 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Dark (hidden) photons are widely recognised as well motivated candidates for physics beyond the standard model, and have been invoked for the solution of several outstanding problems, including to account for the dark matter in the universe. In this paper, we consider a simple model for dark photons, which is coupled to ordinary matter only through kinetic mixing with ordinary photons. Within this framework, we calculate the flux of solar dark photons on Earth and revise the potential to detect it with the next generation of axion helioscopes, particularly with the International AXion Observatory (IAXO). This paper extends on previous theoretical analyses in two main ways. Firstly, it includes a more complete analysis of the possible sources of dark photons from the sun, including the contribution of the solar magnetic field and of nuclear processes, and secondly it includes predictions on the parameter space accessible in the gas-filled phase of IAXO info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/AEI/PID2019-108122GB-C32 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EUR/ERC-2017-AdG-788781 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PGC2022-126078NB-C21 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.es 5.9 2024 PHYSICS, PARTICLES & FIELDS 5 / 31 = 0.161 2024 Q1 T1 ASTRONOMY & ASTROPHYSICS 16 / 84 = 0.19 2024 Q1 T1 0.795 2024 Astronomy and Astrophysics 2024 Q2 9.1 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Giannotti, M.
