Planetary Heat Flow Limits on Monopole and Axion Fluxes
Abstract
Recent improvements in the quantitative estimates of the observed heat flow from planetary objects of the solar system may be used to put rather stringent limits on any background monopole flux. The axion flux from the giant planets is also estimated.
