“…The ALP parameter space is also constrained by a number of resonant cavity experiments. We show the regions excluded by ADMX [16,17] and ADMX Sidecar [98], Phase 1 of HAYSTAC [21], the ORGAN Pathfinder [18], QUAX [19] and the older UF [99] and RBF [100,101] experiments in dark blue in Fig. 3.…”

Dark matter targets for axionlike particle searches

Many existing and proposed experiments targeting QCD axion dark matter (DM) can also search for a broad class of axionlike particles (ALPs). We analyze the experimental sensitivities to electromagnetically coupled ALP DM in different cosmological scenarios with the relic abundance set by the misalignment mechanism. We obtain benchmark DM targets for the standard thermal cosmology, a pre-nucleosynthesis period of early matter domination, and a period of kination. These targets are theoretically simple and assume Oð1Þ misalignment angles, avoiding fine-tuning of the initial conditions. We find that some experiments will have sensitivity to these ALP DM targets before they are sensitive to the QCD axion, and others can potentially reach interesting targets below the QCD band. The ALP DM abundance also depends on the origin of the ALP mass. Temperature-dependent masses that are generated by strong dynamics (as for the QCD axion) correspond to DM candidates with smaller decay constants, resulting in even better detection prospects.

“…The continuing dashed lines show plausible uncertainties. We also show, in grey, the current bounds on axion DM (ADMX [106,107],BRF) and, in green, prospects for next generation axion dark matter experiments, such as ADMX [106,107], CAPP [108], HAYSTAC [109], MADMAX [111,112], ORPHEUS [113,114], and the helioscope IAXO [115] (fiducial, extended+ sensitivities to the axion-photon channel and IAXOeγ for the electron-photon channel).

The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics is a big success. However, it lacks explanations for cosmic inflation, the matter-anti-matter asymmetry of the Universe, dark matter, neutrino oscillations, and the feebleness of CP violation in the strong interactions. The latter may be explained by a complex scalar field charged under a spontaneously broken global U(1) Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry. Moreover, the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson of this breaking -the axion-may play the role of the dark matter. Furthermore, the modulus of the PQ field is a candidate for driving inflation. If additionally three extra SM singlet neutrinos (whose mass is induced by the PQ field) are included, the five aforementioned problems can be addressed at once. We review the SM extension dubbed SMASH -for SM-Axion-Seesaw-Higgs portal inflation-, discuss its predictions and tests in astrophysics, cosmology, and laboratory experiments. Variants of SMASH are also considered and commented on.

“…In this section, we describe the expected dominant noise sources for our setup, shown schematically in figure 3. Some of these noise sources, such as amplifier and thermal noise, are common to axion DM experiments using static background magnetic fields [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. The remaining contributions, however, are particular to our setup.…”

We propose an approach to search for axion dark matter with a specially designed superconducting radio frequency cavity, targeting axions with masses m a 10 −6 eV. Our approach exploits axion-induced transitions between nearly degenerate resonant modes of frequency ∼ GHz. A scan over axion mass is achieved by varying the frequency splitting between the two modes. Compared to traditional approaches, this allows for parametrically enhanced signal power for axions lighter than a GHz. The projected sensitivity covers unexplored parameter space for QCD axion dark matter for 10 −8 eV m a 10 −6 eV and axion-like particle dark matter as light as m a ∼ 10 −14 eV.
