Description
The QCD axion is a compelling dark matter candidate for its natural emergence as a solution to the strong CP problem. Recent advancements in dilution refrigeration and quantum amplification technologies have enabled the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX) to probe the well-motivated axion mass range for both benchmark models: Kim–Shifman–Vainshtein–Zakharov (KSVZ) and Dine–Fischler–Srednicki–Zhitnitsky (DFSZ). I will provide an overview of the current status of the main ADMX experiment, along with updates on related R&D efforts aimed at extending the search to higher-mass axions.
