We study the effects that a non zero strong-CP-violating parameter theta would have on the deuteron and diproton binding energies and on the triple-alpha process. Both these systems exhibit fine tuning, so it is plausible that a small change in the nuclear force would produce catastrophic consequences. Such a nuclear force is here understood in the framework of an effective Lagrangian for pions and nucleons, and the strength of the interaction varies with theta. We find that the effects are not too dramatic.

The $B^+ \to K^+ \nu \bar \nu$ decay as a search for the QCD axion
Model-independent reinterpretation of Belle II B+ → K+ νν̄ data using public kinematic mapping yields a factor-of-nine improvement on the limit for B+ → K+ a and constrains the axion's b-s flavor-changing coupling.

Small-instanton effects in an atlas of KSVZ axion models
Small-instanton contributions can dominate the QCD axion potential in KSVZ models with many vector-like quarks, raising m_a to tens of MeV and shifting the m_a-g_aγγ relation.

Probing Quadratically Coupled Ultralight Dark Matter with Pulsar Timing Arrays
For quadratically coupled ultralight dark matter, pulsar timing arrays can set competitive coherent-signal limits at 10^-24–10^-22 eV, while stochastic-signal limits remain weaker than equivalence-principle constraint...

Weak nuclear decays deep-underground as a probe of axion dark matter
A framework is developed to predict axion-induced time modulations in weak nuclear decays, used to derive constraints on the axion decay constant from reanalyzed Gran Sasso data on 40K and 137Cs and to propose future ...

QCD Axion Dark Matter from level crossing with refined adiabatic condition
Adiabatic level crossing between a QCD axion and an ALP can convert ALP dark matter into QCD axion dark matter, and a beat-frequency-based adiabatic condition maps the viable parameter region.

Five dimensional $SU(5) \times U(1)_{\rm PQ}$ grand unification
The authors propose a 5D SU(5) x U(1)_PQ orbifold model in which SU(5) breaking and a high-quality QCD axion from the fifth component of the U(1) field arise from the same boundary conditions, with intermediate-scale ...

Constraint on ultralight Nelson-Barr dark matter from time-dependent nuclear decay
Non-observation of periodic modulation in tritium beta decay sets a new 95% CL exclusion on ultralight Nelson-Barr scalar dark matter: f below 7.0e9 to 1.4e7 GeV is ruled out for m_phi in 3.4e-23 to 1.7e-20 eV.
