Nelson-Barr ultralight dark matter Light scalar fields are well motivated dark matter candidates, as they commonly arise as pseudo-Goldstone bosons and their abundance is set by the misalignment mechanism. The best known example is perhaps the celebrated QCD axion, further motivated as a solution to the strong CP-problem. I will discuss how in the orthogonal Nelson-Bar solution to the strong … Read More

However, in the case of a non-vanishing nuclear spin, a new CP … Read More
