Location: Auditorium
Speaker: Gray Rybka (University of Washington)
Title: The Axion Dark Matter Experiment
Abstract: The axion is a dark matter candidate motivated by the CP symmetry of the strong force. Dark matter axions are expected to have light masses and be detectable via their weak coupling to photons. A newly upgraded Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX) is undergoing commissioning at the University of Washington, and will be sensitive to even the most pessimistically coupled dark matter axions. I will speak about the design and construction of ADMX, the upcoming data taking, and plans to explore the entire range of plausible dark matter axion parameters.
