We explore the possibility of new light fermionic particles with electromagnetic form factor interactions and their production and detection in underground low-energy high-intensity electron beams. The particles could be dark matter candidates. The detection will be facilitated by using a novel CCD-sensor. We calculate the corresponding cross sections while discussing constraints from cosmology, astrophysics and high-precision particle physics. These theoretical results can then be checked against measurements.
