Why do the wave functions of the three quarks exactly cancel out any observable static charge distribution in the neutron? > This is related to a fundamental property of QCD: QCD allows for CP violation, if the quarks have non-zero masses. Why does QCD nevertheless conserve CP?

Axel Lindner | ALPS II | 16 December 2014 | Page 71 More selected TES results (Thesis of J. Dreyling Eschweiler, paper submitted to the Journal of Modern Optics) > The TES is linear and shows some saturation at higher energies as expected. The absolute energy resolution stays constant!

Axel Lindner | ALPS II | 16 December 2014 | Page 72 More selected TES results (Thesis of J. Dreyling Eschweiler, paper submitted to the Journal of Modern Optics) > There is an intrinsic background most likely related to radioactivity and cosmic rays depositing energy in the silicon substrate around the TES. > The total background rate is about 0.01 Hz, but the rate of photon-like events is only ( ± ) Hz. > Is this the “ultimate noise limit” of the ALPS TES?

Axel Lindner | ALPS II | 16 December 2014 | Page 73 More selected TES results (Thesis of J. Dreyling Eschweiler, paper submitted to the Journal of Modern Optics) > When the TES is coupled via an optical fiber to a dark room-temperature environment, background 1064 nm “photons” are registered at a rate of (0.0086±0.0011) Hz. (using a set-up with an efficiency of 23%). > Most likely this is caused by a pile up of black-body photons with longer wavelengths.

Axel Lindner | ALPS II | 16 December 2014 | Page 79 Summary > Astrophysics might hint at the existence of axion-like particles.  Especially high energy cosmic photons from extragalactic sources could pin down a clear evidence for ALPs. > ALPS II could search for these axion-like particles and other WISPs.  We aim for detecting one infrared photon within an hour. > A detection of WISPs at ALPS II  would give insight into elementary physics at the GeV scale,  could be crucial to understand Dark Matter,  might point to an understanding of Dark Energy and  would provide a strong boost for solar physics with IAXO. > Looking for WISPs in the lab, from the sun and as components of the dark matter halo nicely complements experiments at the energy frontier and other accelerator based efforts.
