The indirect searches for dark matter particles are a very hot topic of today’s physics and astro-
physics. The energy-mass content of the Universe is one of the biggest riddles of modern science.
The Standard Model describes the physics of only a small fraction of the Universe. Although
only gravitational interaction of the dark matter with normal matter was observed up to now, a lot
of effort is put by the scientific community into searches for some new interaction between dark
and usual matter. This new force would be carried by a new boson and the latter could be seen
in the decays of mesons. Most of the scientific research for the effects of dark matter focuses on
very high energy physics, still the existence of such effects at lower energy scales is not excluded.
Through the analysis of the rare decays of light mesons (eta, neutral pion) WASA collaboration
searches for a dark matter signal which cannot be described in the frame of the Standard Model.
This effect could be explained by a coupling between a dark boson and Standard Model particles
(leptons, photons and/or quarks). The WASA detector is perfectly suited to study leptonic decays
for it has the capability to detect both neutral and charged particles and particle identification ca-
pacity. We will present a short description of the analysis of meson decay channels π0→e+eγ ,
η→e+eγ , η→e+e and η→π0e+e−. The data sample with η meson production was collected
in proton proton collisions at 1.4 GeV kinetic energy.
