Description

Axions with a mass around 1 eV can decay into near-infrared photons. Utilising blank-sky observations from the James Webb Space Telescope, I search for a narrow emission line due to decaying dark matter and derive leading constraints on the axion-photon coupling in the eV-scale mass range.
