Description

I will present recent results from and future plans of the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX). Recent results include a first pass axion search of the 800-1020 MHz frequency range at half DFSZ sensitivity for 100% axion dark matter density, the demonstration of a traveling wave parametric amplifier (TWPA) for higher-frequency wide-band operation, and a multi-mode candidate identification technique. Near term plans include the coverage of 800-1020 MHz with full sensitivity to DFSZ coupled axion dark matter, followed by a multicavity upgrade to reach up to 2 GHz. Longer term plans include a significant experiment re-work to reach DFSZ axions at 2 GHz and above, as well as a variety of new ideas that would tackle existing limitations of haloscope searches.
