Axion haloscope: resonant cavity → microwave photon via B·a coupling

Layer 1 — Physicsin the astroparticle-physics subtree

Sikivie-style axion haloscope (1983): halo dark-matter axions a with mass m_a ~ μeV convert into microwave photons of the same frequency ν = m_a·c²/h ≈ 240 MHz·(m_a/μeV) in a high-Q superconducting cavity immersed in a strong solenoidal…
