Characterization of large diameter ultra-thin vacuum windows for soft X-ray applications
K. Desch, E. Ferrer-Ribas, F. J. Iguaz +3
We present novel, ultra-thin, large-diameter silicon nitride windows for various soft X-ray applications. Together with the company NORCADA, we developed windows with 200 nm and 30…
Search for solar axions produced through the axion-electron coupling using a new GridPix detector at CAST
K. Altenmüller, V. Anastassopoulos, S. Arguedas-Cuendis +61
We present a search for solar axions produced through the axion-electron coupling using data from a novel 7-GridPix detector installed at the CERN Axion Solar Telescope…
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…
An accurate solar axions ray-tracing response of BabyIAXO
S. Ahyoune, K. Altenmueller, I. Antolin +124
BabyIAXO is the intermediate stage of the International Axion Observatory (IAXO) to be hosted at DESY. Its primary goal is the detection of solar axions following the axion heliosc…
