An improved analysis framework for axion dark matter searches

D. A. Palken, B. M. Brubaker, M. Malnou +17

In experiments searching for axionic dark matter, the use of the standard threshold-based data analysis discards valuable information. We present a Bayesian analysis framework that…

Results from phase 1 of the HAYSTAC microwave cavity axion experiment

L. Zhong, S. Al Kenany, K. M. Backes +18

We report on the results from a search for dark matter axions with the HAYSTAC experiment using a microwave cavity detector at frequencies between 5.6-5.8. We exclude a…
