Dark Photon Monte Carlo at SeaQuest

Fermi National Laboratory's E906/SeaQuest is an experiment primarily designed to study the ratio of anti-down to anti-up quarks in the nucleon quark sea as a function of Bjorken x. SeaQuest's measurement is obtained by measuring the muon pairs produced by the Drell-Yan process. The experiment can also search for muon pair vertices past the target and beam dump, which would be a signature of Dark Photon decay. It is therefore necessary to run Monte Carlo simulations to determine how a changed Z vertex affects the detection and distribution of muon pairs using SeaQuest's detectors. SeaQuest has an existing Monte Carlo program that has been used for simulations of the Drell-Yan process as well as J/psi decay and other processes. The Monte Carlo program was modified to use a fixed Z vertex when generating muon pairs. Events were then generated with varying Z vertices and the resulting simulations were then analyzed. This work is focuses on the results of the Monte Carlo simulations and the effects on Dark Photon detection.
