The International Axion Observatory (IAXO)

I. G. Irastorza, F. T. Avignone, G. Cantatore +36

The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) is a new generation axion helioscope aiming at a sensitivity to the axion-photon coupling of a few 10 GeV, i.e. 1 - 1.5 ord…

Towards a new generation axion helioscope

I. G. Irastorza, F. T. Avignone, S. Caspi +33

We study the feasibility of a new generation axion helioscope, the most ambitious and promising detector of solar axions to date. We show that large improvements in magnetic field…

Search for 14.4 keV solar axions emitted in the M1-transition of 57Fe nuclei with CAST

CAST Collaboration, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +58

We have searched for 14.4 keV solar axions or more general axion-like particles (ALPs), that may be emitted in the M1 nuclear transition of 57Fe, by using the axion-to-photon conve…

Search for solar axion emission from 7Li and D(p,gamma)3He nuclear decays with the CAST gamma-ray calorimeter

CAST Collaboration, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +58

We present the results of a search for a high-energy axion emission signal from 7Li (0.478 MeV) and D(p,gamma)3He (5.5 MeV) nuclear transitions using a low-background gamma-ray cal…

Solar axion search with the CAST experiment

CAST Collaboration, E. Arik, S. Aune +74

The CAST (CERN Axion Solar Telescope) experiment is searching for solar axions by their conversion into photons inside the magnet pipe of an LHC dipole. The analysis of the data re…

Probing eV-scale axions with CAST

CAST Collaboration, E. Arik, S. Aune +70

We have searched for solar axions or other pseudoscalar particles that couple to two photons by using the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) setup. Whereas we previously have report…
