This lecture is focusing on evidences for dark matter in the universe and the axion as one of the prime dark matter candidates. Furthermore, astrophysical motivations for the existence of axions are discussed.
In this lecture different basic approaches for axion search experiments are presented and the ALPS II experiment at DESY, which started data taking in May 2023, is discussed in some detail. In addition, actual PhD theses in the context of ALPS II are
sketched, including opportunities for other direct dark matter searches.
The „next big thing“ in HEP colliders has still a long way to go. While the
community agrees that the next energy-frontier collider should be a Higgs
Factory, the path towards realisation, the form factor, or even the family
of colliding particles has still to be decided. The path towards very high
collision energies is even less clear and has a lot of technological
challenges to pass. I...
