    Abstract: The experiment of Krasznahorkay \textit{et al} observed the transition of a 8Be excited state to its ground state and accompanied by an emission of e+e− pair with 17 MeV invariant mass. This 6.8σ anomaly can be fitted by a new light gauge boson. We consider the new particle as a U(1) gauge boson, Z′, which plays as a portal linking dark sector and visible sector. In particular, we study the new U(1) gauge symmetry as a hidden or non-hidden group separately. The generic hidden U(1) model, referred to as dark Z model, is excluded by imposing various experimental constraints. On the other hand, a non-hidden Z′ is allowed due to additional interactions between Z′ and Standard Model fermions. We also study the implication of the dark matter direct search on such a scenario. We found the search for the DM-nucleon scattering excludes the range of DM mass above 500 MeV. However, the DM-electron scattering for MeV-scale DM is still allowed by current constraints for non-hidden U(1) models. It is possible to test the underlying U(1) portal model by the future Si and Ge detectors with 5e− threshold charges.
