Description
As a postron source at the ILC, it is discussed to use pair creation processes by a $\mathcal{O}(\text{MeV})$ photon beam, which is generated from the high-energy electron beam. The current design expects that the photon flux would be as intense as $10^{17}$ photons / s, being the strongest MeV photon source available on the ground.
We propose to use this photon beam for the search for new light particles. As a benchmark model, we discuss the dark photon and the QCD axion. The use of the energetic photon beam opens a new window for relatively heavy mass regions, i.e. $\leq \mathcal{O}(100)\,\text{eV}$. We have found that our proposal can constrain not only new parameter regions as a ground experiment but also some physical parameter region of the QCD axion.
