Invisible axion search methods

چکیده
Originally hypothesized to explain the absence of $C\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}P$ violation in strong interactions, axion has emerged as a candidate constituent dark matter. This review guides reader through search methods for QCD well new kinds particles with axionlike properties. For each case, physics method, signatures, and background are discussed depth. A must-have addition quiver hunters.

Axion-photon couplings in invisible axion models.
We reexamine the axion-photon couplings in various invisible axion models motivated by the recent proposal of using optical interferometry at the ASST facility in the SSCL to search for axion. We illustrate that the assignment of U(1)PQ charges for the fermion fields plays an important role in determining the couplings. Several simple non-minimal invisible axion models with suppressed and enhan...
متن کاملA Cosmological Bound on the Invisible Axion
where v is the magnitude of the vacuum expectation value which breaks the U(1)pQ symmetry. An axion of mass (1) with v of order the weak interaction scale has not been observed. However, it has been pointed out [3] that v may be much larger, for example of order the grand unification mass. The axion is then extremely light and weakly coupled and is essentially invisible to laboratory experiment...
متن کاملSpontaneous CP Violation Small Instanton & Invisible Axion
I propose a variant invisible axion model of spontaneous CP violation at the electroweak scale without CP domain-wall and ‘strong CP’ problems. Both large sized QCD and small sized non-QCD instantons break CP and Peccei-Quinn symmetries, and render cosmologically harmful CP domain walls unstable. The decaying epoch depends on size of small instanton effects, and is around 100eV if the current n...
متن کاملStabilizing the invisible axion in 3-3-1 models
Recently, observations of the core mass distribution in the cluster of Galaxies Abell 2029 using the NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory suggest the existence of cold dark matter (CDM) [1]. On the other hand, the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) measurements of the cosmic microwave background temperature anisotropy and polarization are also consistent with CDM and a positive cosmologica...
متن کاملAn Automatic Invisible Axion In The SUSY Preon Model
It is shown that the recently proposed preon model which provides a unified origin of the diverse mass scales and an explanation of family replication as well as of inter–family mass–hierarchy, naturally possesses a Peccei–Quinn (PQ) symmetry whose spontaneous breaking leads to an automatic invisible axion. Existence of the PQ–symmetry is simply a consequence of supersymmetry and the requiremen...
