Description

The present state of the art axion haloscope employs a cylindrical resonant cavity in a solenoidal field. The Center for Axion and Precision Physics research (CAPP) of the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) in Korea, is pursuing halo axion discovery using this cylindrical geometry. Besides the cylindrical geometry, we are also taking an alternative approach of searching for halo axion with toroidal geometry which offers several advantages. A concept of toroidal axion haloscopes and present ongoing research activities and plans are to be presented.
