Abstract.A search for resonant absorbtion of 14.4 keV solar axions by 57 Fe target was performed. The Si(Li) detector placed inside the low-background setup was used to detect the γ-quanta appearing in the deexcitation of 14.4 keV nuclear level: A + 57 Fe → 57 Fe * → 57 Fe + γ. The new upper limit for the hadronic axion mass have been obtained: mA ≤ 151 eV (90% C.L.) (S=0.5, z=0.56).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
