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…

Characterization of a plasma window as a membrane free transition between vacuum and high pressure

B. F. Bohlender, A. Michel, J. Jacoby +2

A plasma window (PW) is a device for separating two areas of different pressures while letting particle beams pass with little to no loss. It has been introduced by A. Hershcovitch…

Search for chameleons with CAST

V. Anastassopoulos, M. Arik, S. Aune +61

In this work we present a search for (solar) chameleons with the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST). This novel experimental technique, in the field of dark energy research, exploit…

New solar axion search in CAST with He filling

M. Arik, S. Aune, K. Barth +60

The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) searches for conversion in the 9 T magnetic field of a refurbished LHC test magnet that can be directed toward the Sun. Two parallel m…

CAST constraints on the axion-electron coupling

K. Barth, A. Belov, B. Beltran +53

In non-hadronic axion models, which have a tree-level axion-electron interaction, the Sun produces a strong axion flux by bremsstrahlung, Compton scattering, and axio-recombination…

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…
