In this paper, we consider the sparse phase retrieval problem, recovering an $s$-sparse signal $\bm{x}^{\natural}\in\mathbb{R}^n$ from $m$ phaseless samples $y_i=|\langle\bm{x}^{\natural},\bm{a}_i\rangle|$ for $i=1,\ldots,m$. Existing…
Well-motivated extensions of the standard model predict ultra-light and fundamental pseudo-scalar particles (e.g., axions or axion-like particles: ALPs). Similarly to the Primakoff-effect for axions, ALPs can mix with photons and…
