Description
The axion is one of the best-motivated candidates for new physics, as it could solve current puzzles such as the Strong CP Problem or the nature of Dark Matter. An especially appealing possibility for its detection comes from astrophysical sources; hot and dense environments, such as Supernovae or Neutron Star mergers, are efficient factories of axions, which can then be converted into photons in the magnetic field around these sources. The resulting electromagnetic radiation could serve as a smoking gun for axion detection. In this talk, we will explore the possibility of detecting the QCD axion with the next ga
