Hunting for Chameleons in ALP searches
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss some recent developments in chameleon models presented at the Fourth Patras workshop on Axions, WIMPs and WISPs. In particular we discuss the possibility of searching for chameleons in axion-like particle searches performed in the laboratory. Such chameleons may couple to both photons and matter with different coupling strengths. We discuss the exciting possibility of searching for these dark energy candidates in quantum vacuum experiments in particular for the GammeV experiment at Fermilab.

ALPs at colliders
New pseudo-scalars, often called axion-like particles (ALPs), abound in modelbuilding and are often associated with the breaking of a new symmetry. Traditional searches and indirect bounds are limited to light axions, typically in or below the KeV range for ALPs coupled to photons. We present collider bounds on ALPs from mono-γ, tri-γ and mono-jet searches in a model independent fashion, as wel...
متن کاملOn how Pachycondyla apicalis ants suggest a new search algorithm
In this paper we present a new optimization algorithm based on a model of the foraging behavior of a population of primitive ants (Pachycondyla apicalis). These ants are characterized by a relatively simple but efficient strategy for prey search in which individuals hunt alone and try to cover a given area around their nest. The ant colony search behavior consists of a set of parallel local sea...
متن کاملEvolution of Karyotypes in Chameleons
The reconstruction of the evolutionary dynamics of karyotypes and sex determining systems in squamate reptiles is precluded by the lack of data in many groups including most chameleons (Squamata: Acrodonta: Chamaeleonidae). We performed cytogenetic analysis in 16 species of chameleons from 8 genera covering the phylogenetic diversity of the family and also phylogenetic reconstruction of karyoty...
متن کاملA New Hunting Control Method for Permanent Magnet Hysteresis Motors
Hunting is a flutter associated with the synchronous speed that gives rise to the gyro drifting errors and may cause objectionable time-displacement errors in video head wheel drives and other precision scanning systems. In this paper, dynamic characteristics of permanent Magnet hysteresis motors are presented and hunting is explained. New damping techniques have been developed using optimi...
متن کاملبررسی ماهیت وجودی نقش شکار در فرش‌های دوره صفویه
Hunting is a familiar phenomenon for human being, and appearance of “Hunting Motif” on the carpets in Iran, according to the remaining documents, can be dated back to the Safavid era,i.e. the Golden Age of Iranian Carpet. In this period, carpet-weaving elevated to the degree of excellent royal art, and carpet became a luxury, decorative and even commercial commodity. The nature and ...
