Simone Borri,Giacomo Insero,Gabriele Santambrogio,Davide Mazzotti,Francesco Cappelli,Iacopo Galli,Gianluca Galzerano,Marco Marangoni,Paolo Laporta,Valentina Di Sarno,L. Santamaria,Pasquale Maddaloni,Paolo De Natale +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review on recent developments and next perspectives in this scope, with particular regard to the use of QCLs in fundamental physics spectroscopic searches is given.
Journal ArticleDOI
Axion dark matter detection by laser spectroscopy of ultracold molecular oxygen: a proposal
L. Santamaria,Caterina Braggio,Giovanni Carugno,V. Di Sarno,Pasquale Maddaloni,Giuseppe Ruoso +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, an experiment based on a molecular gas was proposed for a search in the axion mass range between 1.4 and 1.9 meV, where a 16O2 sample was brought to the temperature of 280 mK via buffer-gas cooling and then subjected to an external magnetic field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Axion dark matter detection by laser induced fluorescence in rare-earth doped materials
Caterina Braggio,Giovanni Carugno,F. Chiossi,Alberto Di Lieto,M. Guarise,Pasquale Maddaloni,Antonello Ortolan,Giuseppe Ruoso,L. Santamaria,J. Tasseva,Mauro Tonelli +10 more
TL;DR: A detection scheme to search for QCD axion dark matter, that is based on a direct interaction between axions and electrons explicitly predicted by DFSZ axion models, is presented, and the results rule out excitation of the upper Zeeman component of the ground state by laser-related heating effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser induced fluorescence for axion dark matter detection: a feasibility study in YLiF$_4$:Er$^{3+}$
Caterina Braggio,Giovanni Carugno,F. Chiossi,A. Di Lieto,M. Guarise,Pasquale Maddaloni,Antonello Ortolan,Giuseppe Ruoso,L. Santamaria,J. Tasseva,M. Tonelli +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detection scheme was proposed to search for QCD axion dark matter, which is based on direct interaction between axions and electrons explicitly predicted by DFSZ axion models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the time constancy of the proton-to-electron mass ratio by precision ro-vibrational spectroscopy of a cold molecular beam
L. Santamaria,V. Di Sarno,Iolanda Ricciardi,Simona Mosca,M. De Rosa,Gabriele Santambrogio,Pasquale Maddaloni,P. De Natale +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an experiment that aims to constrain, over a few-year timescale, the fractional temporal variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio, β = mp/me, at a level of 10 −15 /yr by means of a spectroscopic frequency measurement on a beam of cold CF3H molecules.
