Constraints on the coupling with photons of heavy axion-like-particles from Globular Clusters

We update the globular cluster bound on massive ($m_a$ up to a few 100 keV) axion-like particles (ALP) interacting with photons. The production of such particles in the stellar core is dominated by the Primakoff $\gamma + Ze\to Ze +a$ and by the photon coalescence process $\gamma+\gamma\to a$. The l...
