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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

[HTML][HTML] A new experimental approach to probe QCD axion dark matter in the mass range above $${40}\,{\upmu}\mathrm {{eV}} $$

P Brun, A Caldwell, L Chevalier, G Dvali… - The European Physical …, 2019 - Springer
The axion emerges in extensions of the Standard Model that explain the absence of CP
violation in the strong interactions. Simultaneously, it can provide naturally the cold dark …

[HTML][HTML] 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 …

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 …

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 …

MADMAX status report

S Beurthey, N Böhmer, P Brun, A Caldwell… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
In this report we present the status of the MAgnetized Disk and Mirror Axion eXperiment
(MADMAX), the first dielectric haloscope for the direct search of dark matter axions in the …
