Status report of the CAST Experiment & Running in 2013-2014
The CAST experiment has been taking data since 2003 providing the most restrictive experimental limits on the axion-photon coupling for a broad range of rest mass. During 2012 the magnet cold bores were filled with He-4 for a new scan of axion masses around 0.4 eV in a theoretically motivated region...

description | The CAST experiment has been taking data since 2003 providing the most restrictive experimental limits on the axion-photon coupling for a broad range of rest mass. During 2012 the magnet cold bores were filled with He-4 for a new scan of axion masses around 0.4 eV in a theoretically motivated region of the parameter space. For the following two years CAST is planning to revisit the vacuum phase with enhanced sensitivity for axion searches but also lower detector threshold, which will allow to enter the new territory for solar WISPs in the sub-keV range, where also particles like chameleons are expected to appear. In this document we give the status report of 2012 run, and the physics motivation and running plans for 2013-2014. |
