A Proposal for an ALPs-Chameleon Experiments Station

James R. Boyce, Andrei Afanasev, Oliver Keith Baker +1

It is generally accepted that certain astronomical and cosmological observations can be explained by invoking the concepts of Dark Matter and Dark Energy (DM/DE). Applying straight…

DarkLight: A Search for Dark Forces at the Jefferson Laboratory Free-Electron Laser Facility

J. Balewski, J. Bernauer, W. Bertozzi +64

We give a short overview of the DarkLight detector concept which is designed to search for a heavy photon A' with a mass in the range 10 MeV/c^2 < m(A') < 90 MeV/c^2 and which deca…

New Experimental Limit on Photon Hidden-Sector Paraphoton Mixing

A. Afanasev, O. K. Baker, K. B. Beard +6

We report on the first results of a search for optical-wavelength photons mixing with hypothetical hidden-sector paraphotons in the mass range between 10^-5 and 10^-2 electron volt…

New Experimental limit on Optical Photon Coupling to Neutral, Scalar Bosons

A. Afanasev, O. K. Baker, K. B. Beard +6

We report on the first results of a sensitive search for scalar coupling of photons to a light neutral boson in the mass range of approximately 1.0 milli-electron volts and couplin…

Production and detection of very light spin-zero bosons at optical frequencies

A. V. Afanasev, O. K. Baker, K. W. McFarlane +3

The PVLAS collaboration has observed rotation of the plane of polarization of light passing through a magnetic field in vacuum and has proposed that the effect is due to interactio…
