Description

Speaker: Anupam Ray
Abstract: It has long been realized that stars are natural laboratories for axion production via thermal processes. In this talk, I will walk you through how mono-energetic axions can be copiously produced through nuclear de-excitations inside stars. I will further discuss two promising detection strategies for these axions and show how leading sensitivity on axion interactions can be achieved using them.
