abstract = {The first FASER search for a light, long-lived particle
decaying into a pair of photons is reported. The search uses
LHC proton-proton collision data at $ \sqrt{s} $ = 13.6 TeV
collected in 2022 and 2023, corresponding to an integrated
luminosity of 57.7 fb$^{−1}$. A model with axion-like
particles (ALPs) dominantly coupled to weak gauge bosons is
the primary target. Signal events are characterised by
high-energy deposits in the electromagnetic calorimeter and
no signal in the veto scintillators. One event is observed,
compared to a background expectation of 0.44 ± 0.39 events,
which is entirely dominated by neutrino interactions.
World-leading constraints on ALPs are obtained for masses up
to 300 MeV and couplings to the Standard Model W gauge
boson, g$_{aWW}$, around 10$^{−4}$ GeV$^{−1}$, testing a
previously unexplored region of parameter space. Other new
particle models that lead to the same experimental
signature, including ALPs coupled to gluons or photons,
U(1)$_{B}$ gauge bosons, up-philic scalars, and a Type-I
two-Higgs doublet model, are also considered for
interpretation, and new constraints on previously viable
parameter space are presented in this paper.[graphic not
