DESCRIPTION: Dark matter is thought to make up 25% of the universe.  Dar
 k sector particles (DSP) do not interact through the known forces but coul
 d be weakly coupled to Standard Model particles through a portal or a medi
 ator (Dark Messenger) that could provide access to the dark matter world. 
 Many searches for these particles at an accelerator thus far seem to face 
 a ceiling that the sensitivity reach is greatly limited\, beyond statistic
 al effects. DAMSA (DArk Messenger Searches at an Accelerator) is an extrem
 ely short baseline\, table-top scale experiment that aiims to break throug
 h this limit.  The experiment plans to take advantage of high beam powers
  available at various accelerator facilities around the world\, including 
 the PIP-II LINAC under construction at Fermilab near Chicago\, an essentia
 l element in providing the necessary high flux proton beams to the $3.5B U
 .S. flagship neutrino experiment\, DUNE.  In this talk\, I will describe 
 the DAMSA experiment and discuss the current status and plan for DAMSA\, a
 s well as its expected sensitivity reach on the search of the Axion-Like P
 article\, a dark messenger\, as a benchmark physics case.\n\nhttps://indic
