March 2016 / Beam time period
At the 215th meeting of the Research Board (RB) of CERN the P348 experiment is approved as an SPS experiment with the reference number NA64. The RB also  approved   the  beam request in 2016, i.e. two weeks of test run in July  and four weeks of physics run in October-November, to investigate the region of the invisibly decaying dark-photon parameter space that could explain the muon g-2 anomaly.
