In the search for axion dark matter, the cavity-based haloscope offers the most sensitive approach to the theoretically interesting models in the microwave region. However, experimental searches have been limited to relatively low masses up…
The hypothetical axion and axion-like particles, feebly coupled with photon, have not yet been found in any experiment. With the improvement of laser technique, much stronger but shorter quasi-static electric and magnetic fields can be…

Axion helioscopes search for solar axions and axion-like particles via inverse Primakoff conversion in strong laboratory magnets pointed at the Sun. Anticipating the detection of solar axions, we determine the potential for the planned…
A Super Flavour Factory, to be built in the Tor Vergata University campus near Frascati, Italy, will have nano-beams in order to reach a design luminosity two orders of magnitude higher than the present state of the art. The knowledge and…
We propose to create a secondary beam of neutral kaons in Hall D at Jefferson Lab to be used with the GlueX experimental setup for strange hadron spectroscopy. The superior CEBAF electron beam will enable a flux on the order of $1\times…
We have searched for axions which could have been produced in the solar core using an axion helioscope with a 2.3m-long 4T superconducting magnet. Axion mass region up to m_a=0.26eV was newly explored by introducing dispersion-matching gas.…
We use the Kharzeev-Levin-Nardi model of the low $x$ gluon distributions to fit recent HERA data on charm and longitudinal structure functions. Having checked that this model gives a good description of the data, we use it to predict…
Possible layouts of superconducting dipoles for the main injector of High Energy LHC (HE-LHC) are proposed on the basis of the experience matured with ongoing R&D activities at the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics (INFN),…
This article describes BabyIAXO, an intermediate experimental stage of the International Axion Observatory (IAXO), proposed to be sited at DESY. IAXO is a large-scale axion helioscope that will look for axions and axion-like particles…
Hypothetical axion-like particles with a two-photon interaction would be produced in the Sun by the Primakoff process. In a laboratory magnetic field (``axion helioscope'') they would be transformed into X-rays with energies of a few keV.…
This paper is a simple, quick guide to KLOE, the flagship experiment of INFN's \Phi factory DAFNE at Frascati. KLOE's design principles, properties, its physics accomplishments and its impact on "flavor physics", are described in terms…
This paper presents a brief overview of the physics with the 15-30~GeV continuous beam electron facility proposed by the European community of nuclear physicists to study the quark and gluon structure of hadrons.
The use of pressurized bladders for stress control of superconducting magnets was firstly proposed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) in the early 2000s. Since then, the so-called bladders and keys procedure has become one of…
Since april 1999, the KLOE experiment at DAFNE has collected about 200 inverse pb of data, produced in electron-positron collision at the c.m. energy of 1020 MeV, the mass of the phi meson. These data have been used for detailed studies on…
The axion is a compelling hypothetical particle that could account for the dark matter in our universe, while simultaneously explaining why quark interactions within the neutron do not appear to give rise to an electric dipole moment. The…

The KLOE detector at the DA$\Phi$NE $\phi$-factory has been operating in two periods from 2001 to 2006 and from 2014 to 2018 collecting a large sample of $\phi$-meson decays. This allowed to perform precision measurements and studies of…
The KLOE Collaboration completed the full data taking on March 2006, acquiring 2.5 fb ^ -1 at the peak of the \phi and other 240 pb ^ -1 off-peak. A new Collaboration is working on a new project, called KLOE-2, to refine and extend the KLOE…
