Constellation: The Autonomous Control and Data Acquisition System for Dynamic Experimental Setups
Simon Spannagel, Stephan Lachnit, Hanno Perrey +13
The operation of instruments and detectors in laboratory or beamline environments presents a complex challenge, requiring stable operation of multiple concurrent devices, often con…
Construction and characterization of a seven-chip GridPix X-ray detector for solar axion searches
Klaus Desch, Jochen Kaminski, Christoph Krieger +2
In the scope of solar axion searches, detectors which are able to measure low energetic X-rays with high efficiency are required. For this purpose a detector based on the GridPix t…
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…
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…
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…
