Search for Axion(-like) Particles in Heavy-Ion Collisions
arXiv:2102.02816 · doi:10.1007/JHEP07(2022)082
Abstract
We propose a novel way to search for axion(-like) particles in heavy-ion collisions using prompt photons as the probe and the property of conversion between photon and axion(-like) particles under a strong magnetic field generated in the non-central collisions. The expected result reveals that a new phase space region of the coupling constant for photon and axion(-like) particles can be covered in the future high energy nuclear colliders.
