Hypothetical low-mass particles, such as axions, provide a compelling explanation for the dark matter in universe. Such particles are expected to emerge abundantly from hot interior of stars. To test this prediction, CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) uses 9 T refurbished Large Hadron Collider magnet directed towards Sun. In strong magnetic field, solar axions can be converted X-ray photons which recorded by detectors. 2013–2015 run, thanks low-background detectors and new telescope,...
The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) will be a forth generation axion helioscope. As its primary physics goal, IAXO look for axions or axion-like particles (ALPs) originating in the Sun via Primakoff conversion of solar plasma photons. In terms signal-to-noise ratio, about 4–5 orders magnitude more sensitive than CAST, currently most powerful helioscope, reaching sensitivity to axion-photon couplings down few × 10−12 GeV−1 and thus probing large fraction unexplored ALP parameter space....
We review the physics potential of a next generation search for solar axions: International Axion Observatory (IAXO) . Endowed with sensitivity to discover axion-like particles (ALPs) coupling photons as small gaγ∼ 10−12 GeV−1, or electrons gae∼10−13, IAXO has find QCD axion in 1 meV∼1 eV mass range where it solves strong CP problem, can account cold dark matter Universe and be responsible anomalous cooling observed number stellar systems. At same time, will have enough detect lower axions...
A bstract This article describes BabyIAXO, an intermediate experimental stage of the International Axion Observatory (IAXO), proposed to be sited at DESY. IAXO is a large-scale axion helioscope that will look for axions and axion-like particles (ALPs), produced in Sun, with unprecedented sensitivity. BabyIAXO conceived test all subsystems (magnet, optics detectors) relevant scale final system thus serve as prototype IAXO, but same time fully-fledged physics reach itself, potential discovery....

In this work we present a search for (solar) chameleons with the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST). This novel experimental technique, in field of dark energy research, exploits both chameleon coupling to matter (βm) and photons (βγ) via Primakoff effect. By reducing X-ray detection threshold used axions from 1 keV 400 eV CAST became sensitive converted solar spectrum which peaks around 600 eV. Even though have not observed any excess above background, can provide 95% C.L. limit strength...
Hypothetical axions provide a compelling explanation for dark matter and could be emitted from the hot solar interior. The CERN Axion Solar Telescope has been searching via their back conversion to x-ray photons in 9-T 10-m long magnet directed toward Sun.

The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) is a next generation axion helioscope aiming at sensitivity to the axion-photon coupling of few 10^{-12} GeV^{-1}, i.e. 1-1.5 orders magnitude beyond sensitivities achieved by currently most sensitive helioscope, CERN Solar Telescope (CAST). Crucial factors in improving for IAXO are increase magnetic field volume together with extensive use x-ray focusing optics and low background detectors, innovations already successfully tested CAST....

The VMM3a is an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC), specifically developed for the readout of gaseous detectors. Originally within ATLAS New Small Wheel (NSW) upgrade, it has been successfully integrated into Scalable Readout System (SRS) RD51 collaboration. This allows, to use also in small laboratory set-ups and mid-scale experiments, which make Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs). As part integration SRS, data transfer scheme was optimised reach a high rate-capability...

Open Hardware-based microcontrollers, especially the Arduino platform, have become a comparably easy-to-use tool for rapid prototyping and implementing creative solutions. Such devices in combination with dedicated front-end electronics can offer low-cost alternatives student projects, slow control independently operating small-scale instrumentation. The capabilities be extended to data taking signal analysis at mid-level rates. Two detector realizations are presented, which cover readouts...
