SUMMARY:New Physics and New Proposal to Find Them in Proton Fixed-Targ
 et Facilities at Fermilab\, NPAC (Nuclear/Particle/Astro/Cosmo) Forum\
 , Yu-dai Tsai\, FNAL
DESCRIPTION:We propose a dedicated search for minicharged particles (M
 CP) and
\nlight dark matter at Fermilab utilizing proton-fixed target

 \nfacilities. First\, we present the constraints and sensitivity reach
 es
\nconsidering the MCP scattering with the electrons in the neutrino
 
\ndetectors\, including SBND\, MiniBooBE\, MicroBooNE\, DUNE\, and SH
 iP [1].
\nSecondly\, we present a new proposal\, FerMINI\, to place a 
 new detector
\nto further improve the sensitivity. The potential sites
  include the
\nMINOS hall downstream of NuMI beamline and the proposed
  DUNE near
\ndetector hall along the LBNF beamline. The setup would dr
 astically
\nimprove the sensitivity of MCPs in the MeV to GeV mass reg
 ime and will
\nbe discussed in detail in this talk. I will also talk a
 bout the
\nsearches of other weakly interacting particles\, including 
 light
\nscalars\, dark photons\, and dipole portal heavy neutral lepto
 ns (an
\nexplanation of MiniBooNE anomaly) [2\, 3] if time allows.
