New experimental approaches in the search for axion-like particles

IG Irastorza, J Redondo - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2018 - Elsevier
Axions and other very light axion-like particles appear in many extensions of the Standard
Model, and are leading candidates to compose part or all of the missing matter of the …

Tunable axion plasma haloscopes

M Lawson, AJ Millar, M Pancaldi, E Vitagliano… - Physical review …, 2019 - APS
We propose a new strategy for searching for dark matter axions using tunable cryogenic
plasmas. Unlike current experiments, which repair the mismatch between axion and photon …

Axion and hidden photon dark matter detection with multilayer optical haloscopes

M Baryakhtar, J Huang, R Lasenby - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
A well-motivated class of dark matter candidates, including axions and dark photons, takes
the form of coherent oscillations of a light bosonic field. If the dark matter couples to standard …

Revealing the dark matter halo with axion direct detection

JW Foster, NL Rodd, BR Safdi - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
The next generation of axion direct-detection experiments may rule out or confirm axions as
the dominant source of dark matter. We develop a general likelihood-based framework for …

Proposal to detect dark matter using axionic topological antiferromagnets

DJE Marsh, KC Fong, EW Lentz, L Šmejkal, MN Ali - Physical Review Letters, 2019 - APS
Antiferromagnetically doped topological insulators (ATI) are among the candidates to host
dynamical axion fields and axion polaritons, weakly interacting quasiparticles that are …

Axion-photon conversion in strongly magnetised plasmas

AJ Millar, S Baum, M Lawson… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Axion dark matter can resonantly convert to photons in the magnetosphere of neutron stars,
possibly giving rise to radio signals observable on Earth. This method for the indirect …

Axion couplings in grand unified theories

P Agrawal, M Nee, M Reig - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract We show that the couplings of axions to gauge bosons are highly restricted in
Grand Unified Theories where the standard model is embedded in a simple 4D gauge …

Directional axion detection

S Knirck, AJ Millar, CAJ O'Hare… - … of Cosmology and …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We develop a formalism to describe extensions of existing axion haloscope designs to those
that possess directional sensitivity to incoming dark matter axion velocities. The effects are …

Dark matter interferometry

JW Foster, Y Kahn, R Nguyen, NL Rodd, BR Safdi - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
The next generation of ultralight dark matter (DM) direct detection experiments, which could
confirm sub-eV bosons as the dominant source of DM, will feature multiple detectors …

Discovery prospects with the dark-photons & axion-like particles interferometer

J De Miguel, JF Hernández-Cabrera… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We discuss the discovery potential of the Dark-photons & Axion-Like particles Interferometer
in this paper. The apparatus, currently in a design and prototy** phase, will probe axion …
