Model, including the strong CP problem and the origin of dark matter. In recent years, there …

Search for Invisible Axion Dark Matter in the Mass Range

C Bartram, T Braine, E Burns, R Cervantes, N Crisosto… - Physical review …, 2021 - APS
We report the results from a haloscope search for axion dark matter in the 3.3–4.2 μ eV mass
range. This search excludes the axion-photon coupling predicted by one of the benchmark …

Constraining ultralight dark matter through an accelerated resonant search

Z Xu, X Ma, K Wei, Y He, X Heng, X Huang, T Ai… - Communications …, 2024 - nature.com
Typical weak signal search experiments rely on resonant effects, where the resonance

Search for a dark-matter-induced cosmic axion background with ADMX

T Nitta, T Braine, N Du, M Guzzetti, C Hanretty… - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
We report the first result of a direct search for a cosmic axion background (C a B)—a
relativistic background of axions that is not dark matter—performed with the axion …

A Proposal for a Low‐Frequency Axion Search in the 1–2 μ \umu eV Range and Below with the BabyIAXO Magnet

S Ahyoune, A Álvarez Melcón… - Annalen der …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
In the near future BabyIAXO will be the most powerful axion helioscope, relying on a custom‐
made magnet of two bores of 70 cm diameter and 10 m long, with a total available magnetic …

-axion and -axiverse of dark QCD

S Alexander, H Gilmer, T Manton, E McDonough - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Axions and axionlike particles are a prominent dark matter candidate, drawing motivation in
part from the axiverse of string theory. Axionlike particles can also arise as composite …

Searching for scalar field dark matter using cavity resonators and capacitors

VV Flambaum, BT McAllister, IB Samsonov, ME Tobar - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We establish new experiments to search for dark matter based on a model of a light scalar
field with a dilaton-like coupling to the electromagnetic field, which is strongly motivated by …
