Description
The Center for Axion and Precision Physics Research (CAPP) of the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) in Korea has completed the construction of the infrastructure for axion dark matter search experiments. An experiment utilizing a 9 T superconducting magnet with a 127 mm bore diameter placed in a He-3 cryogenic system is currently under preparation. This experiment will employ a new cavity design, dubbed ‘pizza-cylinder cavity’, which provides various benefits in searching for high frequency axion dark matter. We desire to probe a broad frequency range of 2.8 to 7.0 GHz (equivalent axion mass range of roughly 10 to 30 μeV) with a target sensitivity of 10 times KSVZ. We present the status of the experiment and discuss the future prospects.
