Abstract

We have searched for light scalar and/or pseudoscalar particles that couple to two photons by studying the propagation of a laser beam ($\ensuremath{\lambda}=514$ nm) through a transverse magnetic field. A limit of 3.5\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{\ensuremath{-}10}$ rad was set on a possible optical rotation of the beam polarization for an effective path length of 2.2 km in a 3.25 T magnetic field. We find that the coupling ${g}_{\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}}<3.6\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}7}$ Ge${\mathrm{V}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ at the 95% confidence level, provided ${m}_{a}<{10}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$ eV. Similar limits can be set from the absence of ellipticity in the transmitted beam. We also searched for photon regeneration in a magnetic field and found the limit ${g}_{\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\gamma}}<6.7\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}7}$ Ge${\mathrm{V}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ for the same range of particle mass.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
