Description

Heavy QCD axions with masses O(GeV) and decay constants O(1-100 TeV) can solve the Strong CP and the Axion Quality Problem. They also represent an interesting target for various terrestrial searches. In this talk, I will discuss two new approaches in searching for such axions: (a) a trigger-level analysis to look for low-mass diphoton resonances at the LHC; and (b) looking for fermionic final states at present and future neutrino experiments.
