Description
The Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX) is an axion haloscope located at the University of Washington in Seattle. It is the first axion haloscope to reach benchmark KSVZ and DFSZ axion models and one of the few experiments on earth that can detect QCD axions. In this talk I will outline the motivation for QCD axions as a dark matter candidate, explain how ADMX aims to detect them, and review the experiment’s progress, focusing on our most recent data-taking run, which ended in December 2024.
