“…For instance, spinpolarized torsion pendulums [27,28] or precision magnetometers, such as comagnetometers and nuclear magnetic resonance setups [28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47], can search for axions of mass m a ≪ µeV. Other recent proposals involve searching for spin precession in superfluid helium [48][49][50], nitrogen vacancy centers [51], and storage rings [52][53][54][55][56]. At higher axion masses, axion absorption can JHEP05(2024)314 induce spin-flip transitions in atoms [57][58][59][60] or excite in-medium magnons [61,62].…”

In the presence of axion dark matter, fermion spins experience an “axion wind” torque and an “axioelectric” force. We investigate new experimental probes of these effects and find that magnetized analogs of multilayer dielectric haloscopes can explore orders of magnitude of new parameter space for the axion-electron coupling. We also revisit the calculation of axion absorption into in-medium excitations, showing that axioelectric absorption is screened in spin-polarized targets, and axion wind absorption can be characterized in terms of a magnetic energy loss function. Finally, our detailed theoretical treatment allows us to critically examine recent claims in the literature. We find that axioelectric corrections to electronic energy levels are smaller than previously estimated and that the purported electron electric dipole moment due to a constant axion field is entirely spurious.

“…This problem is related to monopoles and, if the dual Witten effect [5] exists, to all charged nonexotic particles. The problem of the spin motion of a particle (dyon) with electric and magnetic charges and dipole moments remains unsolved and is rather important because experiments on searching for dark matter axions in spin interactions are currently being fulfilled by several collaborations [15][16][17]. In such experiments, the potential presence of axion-induced magnetic charges should be taken into account.…”

The general classical equation of spin motion is rigorously derived for a particle with electric and magnetic charges and electric and magnetic dipole moments in electromagnetic fields. The equation describing the spin motion relative to the momentum direction in storage rings is also obtained. The importance of the derivation follows from the potential presence of magnetic charges and EDMs due to the pseudoscalar CP-violating electromagnetic interaction caused by dark matter axions.

Numerous theories have postulated the existence of exotic spin-dependent interactions beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Spin-based quantum sensors, which utilize the quantum properties of spins to enhance measurement precision, emerge as powerful tools for probing theseexotic interactions. These sensors encompass a wide range of technologies, such as optically pumped magnetometers, atomic comagnetometers, spin masers, nuclear magnetic resonance, spin amplifiers, and nitrogen-vacancy centers. These technologies stand out for their ultrahigh sensitivity, compact tabletop design, and cost-effectiveness, offering complementary approaches to the large-scale particle colliders and astrophysical observations. This article reviews the underlying physical principles of various spin sensors and highlights the recent theoretical and experimental progress in the searches for exotic spin-dependent interactions with these quantum sensors. Investigations covered include the exotic interactions of spins with ultralight dark matter, exotic spin-dependent forces, electric dipole moment, spin-gravity interactions, and among others. Ongoing and forthcoming experiments using advanced spin-based sensors to investigate exotic spin-dependent interactions are discussed.
