The production of -meson in proton–low-Z targets (12C, 7Li) reactions for beam energies is analyzed on the basis of a relativistic transport (ART) model means. The double differential cross-section and the ratio of production with various targets for different emission angles are calculated. Moreover, the light neutral vector boson U from kaon decays is investigated and the momentum spectra of the U-boson with mass are obtained. It is found that the shapes of U-boson's momentum spectra distributions are practically independent of its mass distributions but sensitive to the emission angle. Furthermore, the decay channel is considered and the energy spectra of positron from U-boson decays are first presented, which will be conduced to search for the U-boson in experiments and understand the light dark-matter particles.
