Axion dark matter can be converted into photons in the magnetospheres of neutron stars leading to a spectral line centred on the Compton wavelength of the axion. Due to the rotation of the star and the plasma effects in the magnetosphere…

We have proposed a new approach to search for axion dark matter with an optical ring cavity [Phys. Rev. Lett. 121, 161301 (2018)]. The coupling of photons to axions or axion-like particles makes a modulated difference in the phase velocity…
A consistent renormalization of a quantum theory of axion-electrodynamics requires terms beyond the minimal coupling of two photons to a neutral pseudoscalar field. This procedure is used to determine the self-energy operators of the…
