- The HAYSTAC (Haloscope at Yale Sensitive to Axion Cold Dark Matter) experiment is a leading research initiative aimed at detecting axions.
- These hypothetical particles are considered promising candidates for dark matter.
- HAYSTAC has reported the most extensive search for axions to date, employing innovative techniques to enhance sensitivity.
- Axions are the hypothetical elementary particles proposed to resolve a major inconsistency in particle physics known as the strong CP problem.
- They are neutral (no electric charge) and are believed to have extremely small mass.
- The CP symmetry refers to the combined transformation of “C (Charge): Switching particles with their antiparticles” and “P (Parity): Reversing spatial coordinates (like a mirror image)”.
