A Proposed Network to Detect Axion Quark Nugget Dark Matter
Xunyu Liang, Egor Peshkov, Ludovic Van Waerbeke +1
A network of synchronized detectors can increase the likelihood of discovering the QCD axion, within the Axion Quark Nugget (AQN) dark matter model. A similar network can also disc…
Axion Quark Nuggets and how a Global Network can discover them
Dmitry Budker, Victor V. Flambaum, Xunyu Liang +1
We advocate an idea that the presence of the daily and annual modulations of the axion flux on the Earth surface may dramatically change the strategy of the axion searches. Our com…
Axion Quark Nugget Dark Matter: Time Modulations and Amplifications
Xunyu Liang, Alexander Mead, Md Shahriar Rahim Siddiqui +2
We study the new mechanism of the axion production suggested recently in [1,2]. This mechanism is based on the so-called Axion Quark Nugget (AQN) dark matter model, which was origi…
Gravitationally trapped axions on Earth
Kyle Lawson, Xunyu Liang, Alexander Mead +3
We advocate for the idea that there is a fundamentally new mechanism for axion production on Earth, as recently suggested in Fischer et al. (2018) and Liang & Zhitnitsky (2018). We…
Gravitationally bound axions and how one can discover them
Xunyu Liang, Ariel Zhitnitsky
As recently advocated in \cite{Fischer:2018niu}, there is a fundamentally new mechanism for the axion production in the Sun and Earth. However, the role of very slow axions in prev…
New mechanism producing axions in the AQN model and how the CAST can discover them
H. Fischer, X. Liang, Y. Semertzidis +2
We advocate the idea that there is a fundamentally new mechanism for the axion production in the Sun, which has never been discussed previously in the literature. This novel mechan…
