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 …
