Description
BabyIAXO is the first implementation of the International AXion Observatory. Currently, works have begun in construction site in Desy, Hamburg, Germany. University of Zaragoza is developing the baseline X-ray detectors, gaseus detectors with Micromegas as readout plane. Two prototipes have been in operation during last year: Iaxo-D0 in Zaragoza with a veto system designed to identify muons and cosmic neutrons, and Iaxo-D1 at Canfranc Undergrund Laboratory, a low background environment useful to chatacterize the intrinsic background (radiopurity) of the detector. Results set the reference level in terms of background for future BabyIAXO detectors.
