An experimental limit on production of axions in a fission reactor
Abstract
We report on an experiment conducted at the ILL reactor aimed at searching for coincident gamma-ray events from axion decay. No such events are seen and our results are interpreted, using the calculations by Donnelly et al., as an upper limit of the axion mass of 280 keV.
