Description

I give a brief update on axion experiments at the University of Manchester. I will describe recent updates on cavity development, plans to construct a pathfinder experiment at 30GHz, as well as detailing recent successes on the development of quantum noise limited parametric amplifiers. Time permitting, I will also describe searches for high-frequency gravitational waves.
