ADMX SLIC: Results from a Superconducting $$\textit{LC}$$ Circuit Investigating Cold Axions
Abstract
Axions are a promising cold dark matter candidate. Haloscopes, which use the conversion of axions to photons in the presence of a magnetic field to detect axions, are the basis of microwave cavity searches such as the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX). To search for lighter, low frequency axions in the sub-2 × 10–7 eV (50 MHz) range, a tunable lumped-element $$\textit{LC}$$ circuit has been proposed. For the first time, through ADMX SLIC (Superconducting $$\textit{LC}$$ Circuit Investigating Cold Axions), a resonant $$\textit{LC}$$ circuit was used to probe this region of axion mass-coupling space. The detector used a superconducting $$\textit{LC}$$ circuit with piezoelectric driven capacitive tuning. The axion mass and corresponding frequency ranges 1.7498–1.7519 × 10–7 eV (42.31–42.36 MHz), 1.7734–1.7738 × 10–7 eV (42.88–42.89 MHz), and 1.8007–1.8015 × 10–7 eV (43.54–43.56 MHz) were covered at magnetic fields of 4.5 T, 5.0 T, and 7.0 T, respectively. Exclusion results from the search data, for coupling below 10–12 GeV–1, are presented.
