_______________________________ADMX What is our Universe made of?
• We know neither what the “dark energy” or the “dark matter” is!
• A particle relic from the Big Bang is strongly implied for DM!— WIMPs ?— Axions ?

Peccei and Quinn:CP conserved through a hidden symmetry
QCD CP violation should, e.g., give a large neutron electric dipolemoment (T + CPT = CP); none is unobserved (10+ orders-of-magnitude discrepancy)
This leads to the “Strong CP Problem”: Where did QCD CP violation go?
1977: Peccei and Quinn: Posit a hidden broken U(1) symmetry 1) A new Goldstone boson (the axion);2) Remnant axion VEV nulls QCD CP violation.
Why doesn’t the neutron havean electric dipole moment?

How’s the axion faring as a dark-matter candidate?Wilczek conclusion (“Physics Today”):“I’m much more optimistic about the dark matter problem.Here we have the unusual situation that two good ideas exist…(wimps and axions)”
Witten conclusion (“Axions in String Theory”):Axions are ubiquitous in string theory; as necessary as gravitons.
Couplings and masses of Dark-matter QCD axions are tightlyconstrained:Allowed couplings are within a range of ×7 and the mass isconstrained to the two decades 10-6 –10-4 eV.
The axion remains a very attractive dark-matter candidate(affirmed by HEPAP, DMSAG, etc.)
The ADMX axion search is “definitive” and relatively inexpensive

Phase I & II Upgrade path:Quantum-limited SQUID-based amplification
•SQUIDs have been measured with TN ~50 mK
•Near quantum– limited noise
•This provides an enormous increase in ADMX sensitivity

This is the “definitive” search
