Du, N., Force, N., Khatiwada, R. et al. (25 more authors) (2018) Search for invisible axion dark matter with the Axion Dark Matter Experiment. Physical Review Letters, 120 (15). 151301. ISSN 0031-9007
Abstract
This Letter reports the results from a haloscope search for dark matter axions with masses between 2.66 and 2.81μeV. The search excludes the range of axion-photon couplings predicted by plausible models of the invisible axion. This unprecedented sensitivity is achieved by operating a large-volume haloscope at subkelvin temperatures, thereby reducing thermal noise as well as the excess noise from the ultralow-noise superconducting quantum interference device amplifier used for the signal power readout. Ongoing searches will provide nearly definitive tests of the invisible axion model over a wide range of axion masses.
