CAST solar axion search with 3^He buffer gas: Closing the hot dark matter gap
M. Arik, S. Aune, K. Barth +72
The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has finished its search for solar axions with 3^He buffer gas, covering the search range 0.64 eV < m_a <1.17 eV. This closes the gap to the co…

Results and perspectives of the solar axion search with the CAST experiment
E. Ferrer-Ribas, M. Arik, S. Aune +69
The status of the solar axion search with the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) will be presented. Recent results obtained by the use of He as a buffer gas has allowed us to ex…

CAST search for sub-eV mass solar axions with 3He buffer gas
M. Arik, S. Aune, K. Barth +68
The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) has extended its search for solar axions by using 3He as a buffer gas. At T=1.8 K this allows for larger pressure settings and hence sensitivi…
