Abstract
The CAST experiment is designed to search for
solar axions which are produced in the dense
plasma the interior of the sun via the Primakoff
effect. Detection of axions and their energy
spectrum will immediately reveal the temperature
of the core plasma. The central part of the
experiment, the helioscope is an LHC prototype
magnet that has attached different types of
sensitive detectors for x-rays in the regime of 1-10
keV...
