Description

Axions are hypothetical particles that solve the strong CP problem, and contribute to the dark matter at the same time. A key input is the axion potential, that depends on the topological susceptibility in quantum chromodynamics. I discuss various lattice computations to the calculation of this quantity and its impact on the axion search.
