Stellar Evolution Bounds on the ALP-Photon Coupling: new Results and Perspectives
Abstract
Stellar evolution considerations are of fundamental importance in our understanding of the axion/ALP-photon coupling, gaγ. Helium burning stars are the best laboratories to study this coupling. Here, we will review the bounds from massive and low mass helium burning stars, and present a new analysis of the bound from the horizontal branch stars. The analysis provides the strongest bound to date on gaγ in a wide mass range.
