论文摘要
超低质量轴是一个可行的暗物质候选者,可能形成连贯的经典田地。当通过我们的银河系传播地球轨迹时,地球实验中的核旋转可能会伴随着振荡的轴轴线暗磁场。这种自旋耦合类似于振荡的伪磁场,该伪磁场调节了核自旋的自旋进动。在这里,我们报告了一个演示实验的零结果,该实验搜索了\ si {1} {\ micro \ tesla}磁场中\ si {1}中\ maghg的自旋透明信号的频率调制。我们的搜索涵盖了Axion Mass范围$ 10^{ - 16}〜\ textrm {ev} \ Lessim m_a \ Lessim 10^{ - 13}〜\ textrm {ev} $,并对轴核苷的峰值达到峰值敏感性10^{ - 6}〜\ textrm {gev}^{ - 1} $。
Ultra-low-mass axions are a viable dark matter candidate and may form a coherently oscillating classical field. Nuclear spins in experiments on Earth might couple to this oscillating axion dark-matter field, when propagating on Earth's trajectory through our Galaxy. This spin coupling resembles an oscillating pseudo-magnetic field which modulates the spin precession of nuclear spins. Here we report on the null result of a demonstration experiment searching for a frequency modulation of the free spin-precession signal of \magHg in a \SI{1}{\micro\tesla} magnetic field. Our search covers the axion mass range $10^{-16}~\textrm{eV} \lesssim m_a \lesssim 10^{-13}~\textrm{eV}$ and achieves a peak sensitivity to the axion-nucleon coupling of $g_{aNN} \approx 3.5 \times 10^{-6}~\textrm{GeV}^{-1}$.
