Search for Cosmic Axions using an Optical Interferometer
A high finesse optical cavity can be used to search for cosmic axions in the
mass range 10^{-6}< m_a <10^{-4} eV. Either a two-arm or a single-arm cavity is
suitable and in either case the signal as resonant sidebands imposed on the
carrier. Assuming for the local axion density the usual figure of 500 MeV/cm^3
[8], the KSVZ axion line [4] g/m_a = 0.4 Gev^{-2}, can be reached over the full
mass range in a one year search.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figur
Neutrino Scattering in a Magnetic Field
Motivated by the evidence for a finite neutrino mass we examine anew the
interaction of neutrinos in a magnetic field. We present the rate for radiative
scattering for both massless and massive neutrinos in the standard model and
give the corresponding numerical estimates. We also consider the effects
arising from a possible neutrino magnetic moment.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figures; Acknowledgements added 05.07.200
