Abstract

The CERN Axion Solar Telescope has finished its search for solar axions with 3He buffer gas, covering the search range 0.64 eV < m_a < 1.17 eV. This closes the gap to the cosmological hot dark matter limit and actually overlaps with it. From the absence of excess X-rays when the magnet was pointing to the Sun we set a typical upper limit on the axion-photon coupling of g_aγ < 3.3×10^(−10) GeV^(−1) at 95% C.L., with the exact value depending on the pressure setting. Future direct solar axion searches will focus on increasing the sensitivity to smaller values of g_aγ, for example by the currently discussed next generation helioscope International AXion Observatory.

Abstract

The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) is searching for axions produced in the Sun´s core by the Primakoff process. CAST is using a decommissioned Large Hadron Collider (LHC) test magnet where axions could be converted back into X-rays with energies up to 10 keV. Analysis of the 2003 data showed no signal above background implying an upper limit for the axion-photon coupling constant g_(a gamma) < 1.16 × 10^(-10) GeV^(-1) at 95% C.L. for m_a < = 0.02 eV [1]. The higher quality 2004 data is presently under analysis. CAST Phase II is scheduled to start in late 2005. This will be the first step in extending CAST´s sensitivity to axion rest masses up to 1 eV.
