  1. 260. Physics with axions and axion-like particles
    Felix Yu (Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz)

  2. 177. Probe axion-like particles at the electron-ion collider

    Axion and ALP

    The electron-ion collider (EIC), a new powerful high-luminosity
    facility, will be able to open up new windows of opportunities to explore new physics. In this
    paper, we study the potential of the EIC to probe the coupling between axion-like particles
    (ALPs) and photons in coherent scattering, where the ion stays intact, resulting in a cross section
    enhancement proportional to the square of...

  3. 124. Heavy QCD axions via dimuon final states

    Axion and ALP

    Heavy QCD axions are well-motivated extensions of the QCD axion that address the quality problem while still solving the strong CP problem. Owing to the gluon coupling, critical for solving the strong CP problem, these axions can be produced in significant numbers in beam dump and collider environments for axion decay constants as large as PeV, relevant for addressing the axion quality...

  4. 232. Searching for the DFSZ Axino in Collider Experiments
    Gabriel Hoshino (University of Chicago)

    Axion and ALP

    Although a direct search for the QCD axion at colliders may not be viable due to the feebleness of the axion couplings to the standard model, collider experiments may be sensitive to signatures of the axino, the supersymmetric partner of the axion. The couplings of the axion and axino are related to the axion decay constant $f_{a}$, and so collider searches for the axino may be a way to set...

  5. 132. Searching for a fifth force with atomic and nuclear clocks
    Dawid Brzeminski (University of Maryland - College Park)
    08/05/2023, 18:00
    Axion and ALP

    We consider the general class of theories in which there is a new ultralight scalar field that mediates an equivalence principle violating, long-range force. In such a framework, the Sun and Earth act as sources of the scalar field, leading to potentially observable location-dependent effects on atomic and nuclear spectra. We determine the sensitivity of current and next-generation atomic and...

  6. 64. Discovering the QCD Axion with Polarization Haloscopes
    Kevin Zhou (Stanford/SLAC)
    08/05/2023, 18:15
    Axion and ALP

    The QCD axion is a well-motivated extension of the Standard Model which dynamically relaxes away strong CP violation. However, to date most searches for the axion have instead focused on its model-dependent coupling to photons. I will present a new idea for axion detection that directly targets its defining coupling to gluons, by resonantly amplifying the oscillating currents from time-varying...

  7. 198. From SuperMAG to SNIPE Hunt: Using the Earth to search for ultralight dark matter
    Saarik Kalia (University of Minnesota)

    Axion and ALP

    Ultralight bosonic particles, including axionlike particles and kinetically mixed dark photons, can be promising dark matter candidates. It was recently shown that the Earth can act as a transducer for ultralight dark matter detection, by converting the dark matter into an oscillating monochromatic magnetic field signal across the Earth's surface. This occurs because the ground and...
