  10. 9. Lecture5-1: Detection of dark matter axions -- from classical microwaves to quantised photons --
    Akira Miyazaki
    10/03/2026, 16:00

    Axions were originally proposed to solve the strong CP problem and are among the leading candidates for ultralight dark matter in cosmology. In contrast to particle-like dark matter candidates such as Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) and Freeze-In Massive Particles (FIMPs), axions and axion-like particles can be described as a classical field. This behavior arises from their large...
