Multi-axion models relax the E/N bound on QCD axion photon coupling and allow subdominant dark matter contribution, but an axion-like particle is typically visible to next-generation experiments.
A mechanism is proposed where the CP violating phase relaxes in discrete steps via nucleation of membranes that discharge the magnetic dual of a 4-form flux, with bubbles colliding and percolating near the chiral symmetry breaking scale during radiation domination.
Turbulent magnetic fields enhance axion-photon conversion signals from supernovae, improving limits on axion-proton and axion-photon couplings by up to two orders of magnitude.
QCD axions constrain F-theory base threefolds to have rigid or flux-rigidified divisors, yielding typical axion masses around 10^{-9} eV and decay constants near 10^{15} GeV in allowed regions.
Updated model-independent BBN and CMB bounds on photophilic ALPs that incorporate rare decays to light hadrons, show extended constraints for multiple reheating temperatures, and flag parameter space that may alleviate tensions in N_eff and deuterium abundance.
Double level crossings are common in multi-axion mass mixing of Z_N axions and ALPs, occurring multiple times for large N in the light axion case but prevented by excessively large or small N in light and heavy scenarios respectively.
