Self-consistent simulations of ECR-based charge breeders: evidence and impact of the plasmoid-halo structure

A. Galatà, C. S. Gallo, D. Mascali +2

This paper discusses the capture of an ion beam in a magnetized plasma of an Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source based Charge Breeder, as modelled by numerical simulations. As…

Operation of a ferromagnetic axion haloscope at eV

N. Crescini, D. Alesini, C. Braggio +15

Axions, originally proposed to solve the strong CP problem of quantum chromodynamics, emerge now as leading candidates of WISP dark matter. The rich phenomenology associated to the…

Microwave cavity tuned with liquid metal and its application to Electron Paramagnetic Resonance

C. S. Gallo, E. Berto, C. Braggio +6

This note presents a method to tune the resonant frequency of a rectangular microwave cavity. This is achieved using a liquid metal, GaInSn, to decrease the volume of the c…

Searching for galactic axions through magnetized media: the QUAX proposal

R. Barbieri, C. Braggio, G. Carugno +6

We present a proposal to search for QCD axions with mass in the 200 eV range, assuming that they make a dominant component of dark matter. Due to the axion-electron spin couplin…

The QUAX proposal: a search of galactic axion with magnetic materials

Giuseppe Ruoso, Augusto Lombardi, Antonello Ortolan +5

Aim of the QUAX (QUaerere AXion) proposal is to exploit the interaction of cosmological axions with the spin of electrons in a magnetized sample. Their effect is equivalent to the…
