It is quite common for research equipment to end up in display cases and exhibition rooms: discarded prototypes, particularly attractive particle detectors or innovative new developments help to explain science and are technological witnesses to the times. However, it is rather rare for exhibits to be dusted off and moved...

The postulation of an axion poses an elegant solution to the strong CP problem of the Standard Model. The construction of such a solution could be jeopardized by new sources of CP violation at high energies. Using an effective field theory approach to describe these new sources of CP violation, a group of Quantum Universe...
