ADMX (Axion Dark Matter Experiment)

The Axion Dark Matter Experiment (ADMX) searches for axions, hypothetical particles that could make up dark matter—the unseen substance that influences the universe's gravity. ADMX uses powerful magnetic fields and sensitive radio receivers to detect tiny signals produced when axions convert into photons (light particles). If successful, this would shed light on the nature of dark matter and help explain the universe’s composition. The experiment combines advanced physics and engineering techniques to explore one of the biggest mysteries in cosmology.
