论文摘要
轴状颗粒（阿尔卑斯山）是由超弦理论预测的非常轻，中性的，自旋零玻色子。阿尔卑斯主要与两个光子相互作用，在存在外部磁场的情况下，它们会产生光子-ALP振荡和光子极化状态的变化。尽管从理论的角度来看，但对ALP存在的暗示来自天体物理学。在本文中，我们指出并演示了一些定理，即初始光子极化与光子 - α转化概率之间存在严格关系 - 可以通过观察到的天体物理谱外推出来 - 因此，在存在ALPS的情况下，使用磁通量的观测值也成为孔马仪。
Axion-like particles (ALPs) are very light, neutral, spin zero bosons predicted by superstring theory. ALPs interact primarily with two photons and in the presence of an external magnetic field they generate photon-ALP oscillations and the change of the polarization state of photons. While well motivated from a theoretical point of view, hints on ALP existence come from astrophysics. In this paper, we state and demonstrate some theorems about a strict relationship between initial photon polarization and photon-ALP conversion probability - which can be extrapolated by observed astrophysical spectra - so that, in the presence of ALPs, flux-measuring observatories become also porarimeters.
