Abstract
In this paper we report the results obtained in experiment PHELEX during 208 days of measurements on the search for dark photons with a multi-cathode counter with an iron cathode that revealed in 4 runs with a confidence level better than 5 σ a systematic excess of single electron events in the time interval from 8-00 till 12-00 sidereal time. The fact that we see this effect in stellar frame and do not in solar frame can be considered as evidence that the observed effect is due to dark photons.
