A new upper limit on the axion-photon coupling with an extended CAST run with a Xe-based Micromegas detector

CAST Collaboration, K. Altenmüller, V. Anastassopoulos +62

Hypothetical axions provide a compelling explanation for dark matter and could be emitted from the hot solar interior. The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has been searching for…

Daily modulations and broadband strategy in axion searches. An application with CAST-CAPP detector

F. Caspers, C. M. Adair, K. Altenmüller +60

It has been previously advocated that the presence of the daily and annual modulations of the axion flux on the Earth's surface may dramatically change the strategy of the axion se…

Search for Dark Matter Axions with CAST-CAPP

C. M. Adair, K. Altenmüller, V. Anastassopoulos +61

The CAST-CAPP axion haloscope, operating at CERN inside the CAST dipole magnet, has searched for axions in the 19.74 eV to 22.47 eV mass range. The detection concept follows…

Improved Search for Solar Chameleons with a GridPix Detector at CAST

V. Anastassopoulos, S. Aune, K. Barth +66

We report on a new search for solar chameleons with the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST). A GridPix detector was used to search for soft X-ray photons in the energy range from 200…

CAST solar axion search with 3^He buffer gas: Closing the hot dark matter gap

M. Arik, S. Aune, K. Barth +72

The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has finished its search for solar axions with 3^He buffer gas, covering the search range 0.64 eV < m_a <1.17 eV. This closes the gap to the co…

CAST search for sub-eV mass solar axions with 3He buffer gas

M. Arik, S. Aune, K. Barth +68

The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has extended its search for solar axions by using 3He as a buffer gas. At T=1.8 K this allows for larger pressure settings and hence sensitivi…
