We have searched for the regeneration of photons propagating in a transverse magnetic field. Such an effect would reveal the existence of light scalar or pseudoscalar particles such as the axion that couple to two photons. We obtain for this coupling the limitgaγγ<(1.3×106 GeV)-1, provided the axion massma≲10-3 eV.
