The COSMIC WISPers White Paper: The physics case for Weakly Interacting Slim Particles

Ariel Arza, Deniz Aybas, Shyam Balaji +124

Axions and other very weakly interacting slim particles (WISPs), with masses below 1 GeV, arise naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. In particula…

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…

Search for anti-quark nuggets via their interaction with the LHC beam

K. Zioutas, A. Zhitnitsky, C. Zamantzas +11

Anti-quark nuggets (AQNs) have been suggested to solve the dark matter (DM) and the missing antimatter problem in the universe and have been proposed as an explanation of various o…

Daily modulations and broadband strategy in axion searches. An application with CAST-CAPP detector

F. Caspers, C. M. Adair, K. Altenmüller +60

It has been previously advocated that the presence of the daily and annual modulations of the axion flux on the Earth's surface may dramatically change the strategy of the axion se…

Status of the Proton EDM Experiment (pEDM)

Jim Alexander, Vassilis Anastassopoulos, Grigor Atoian +80

The Proton EDM Experiment (pEDM) is the first direct search for the proton electric dipole moment (EDM) with the aim of being the first experiment to probe the Standard Model (SM)…

Exploring the Dark Universe: A European Strategy for Axions and other WISPs Discovery

Deniz Aybas, Francesca Calore, Michele Cicoli +17

Axions and other very weakly interacting slim (with 1 GeV) particles (WISPs) are a common feature of several extensions of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. The search…
