The dark photon is a new gauge boson which arises from an extra gauge symmetry. In this paper, a novel dark photon production mechanism based on MeV-scale
–
collider is considered:
. With the aid of PACKAGE-X, differential cross section of
is obtained, as a function of the kinetic mixing parameter
and dark photon mass
. Taking the light-by-light scattering as background, the constraints on the dark photon parameter space for different time intervals in a MeV-scale
–
collider are also given.
