Millicharged particles at electron colliders

We propose to search for millicharged particles in electron colliders operated with the center-of-mass energies at ${\cal O}$(1-10) GeV, which include Belle II, BESIII, BaBar, and also the proposed experiment STCF. We use the monophoton final state to probe the parameter space of millicharged particles at electron colliders. We find that electron colliders have sensitivity to the previously unexplored parameter space for millicharged particles with MeV-GeV mass: $\epsilon \lesssim {\cal O}(10^{-1})$ for $0.5$ GeV $\lesssim m \lesssim 3.5$ GeV in BaBar, $\epsilon \lesssim {\cal O}(10^{-3})$ for $0.1$ GeV $\lesssim m \lesssim 1.5$ GeV in BESIII, $\epsilon \lesssim 10^{-3}-10^{-2}$ for $0.1$ GeV $\lesssim m \lesssim 4$ GeV in Belle II, and $\epsilon \lesssim {\cal O}(10^{-4})$ for $1$ MeV $\lesssim m \lesssim 1$ GeV in STCF.
