In 2019 we introduced a new strategy to search for dark matter axions using tunable cryogenic plasmas. Unlike current experiments, which repair the mismatch between axion and photon masses by breaking translational invariance (cavity and dielectric haloscopes), a plasma haloscope enables resonant conversion by matching the axion mass to a plasma frequency. A key advantage is that the plasma...

The CYGNO project has the goal to use a gaseous TPC with optical readout for low-energy directional Dark Matter search and solar neutrinos detection, providing a unique way to explore their nature.
The CYGNO demonstrator will consist of 1 m3 active volume in 50 cm drift back-to-back TPC, filled with He-CF4 gas mixture at atmospheric pressure, to be...
