Description
I will describe two precision experiments searching for ultralight axion-like dark matter. The SHAFT experiment uses ferromagnetic toroidal magnets, and is sensitive to the electromagnetic coupling in the 12 peV to 12 neV mass range. The CASPEr-e experiment is based on precision magnetic resonance, and is sensitive to the EDM and the gradient couplings in the 162-166 neV mass range. These two searches have recently produced leading experimental limits on all three of the possible interactions of axion-like dark matter in those mass ranges.
