Axions and their Relatives
arXiv:hep-ph/0607215 · doi:10.1007/978-3-540-73518-2_5
Abstract
A review of the status of axions and axion-like particles is given. Special attention is devoted to the recent results of the PVLAS collaboration, which are in conflict with the CAST data and with the astrophysical constraints. Solutions to the puzzle and the implications for new physics are discussed. The question of axion-like particles being dark matter is also addressed.
Updated version of an invited talk at the Axion Training (CERN, December 2005). To appear as a Lecture Notes in Physics (Springer-Verlag), edited by B. Beltran, M. Kuster and G. Raffelt
