Abstract In this paper analytical expressions are derived to
describe the spin motion of a particle in magnetic and electric
fields in the presence of an axion field causing an oscillat-
ing electric dipole moment (EDM). These equations are used
to estimate statistical sensitivities for axion searches at stor-
age rings. The estimates obtained from the analytic expres-
sions are compared to numerical estimates from simulations
in Chang et al. (Phys Rev D 99(8):083002, 2019). A good
agreement is found.
1 Introduction and motivation
Axions and axion like particles (ALPs) are candidates for
dark matter. There is thus a huge experimental effort for the
search of these kind of particles. For a detailed review, we
refer the reader to references [2,3]. Axions and ALPs can
interact with ordinary matter in various ways. Reference [4]
identifies three terms:

describing the coupling to photons, gluons and to the spin
of fermions, respectively. The vast majority of experi-
ments makes use of the first term [e.g. Cavity experiments
(ADMX), helioscopes (CAST), light-through-wall experi-
ments (ALPS)]. In addition, astrophysical observations also
provide sensitive limits to the axion-photon coupling. In gen-
eral, it is rather difficult for these experiments to reach masses
below 10
−6
eV, one reason being that the axion wave length
a

becomes too large. Furthermore, these experiments are mea-
suring rates proportional to at least a small amplitude squared.
For the second (and third) term in the list (1)thisisdiffer-
ent. It turns out that the second term has the same structure
as the QCD-θ term which is also responsible for an electric
dipole moment (EDM) of nucleons. The axion field gives
rise to an effective time-dependent θ -term and oscillates at
a frequency proportional to the mass of the axion m
a
.This
gives rise to an oscillating EDM. New opportunities to search
for axions/ALPs with much higher sensitivity arise, because
the signal is proportional to an amplitude A and not to its
square. To date, NMR based methods are being used to look
at oscillating EDMs [5].
Another possibility is to search for axions/ALPs in stor-
age rings. Storage ring experiments have been proposed to
search for electric dipole moments of charge particles [6,7].
These experiments allow also, with small modifications, to
search for oscillating EDMs. This possibility is discussed
in this paper. Section 2 explains the principle of the exper-
iment, how the (oscillating) EDM alters the spin motion in
electromagnetic fields and leads to a polarization observable.
In Sect. 3 statistical sensitivities for oscillating EDMs based
on these polarization observables are presented.
2 Spin motion in storage rings
The spin motion relative to the momentum vector in elec-
tric and magnetic fields is governed by the Thomas-BMT
equation [8–10]:

S in this equation denotes the spin vector in the particle rest
frame, t the time in the laboratory system, β and γ the rela-
tivistic Lorentz factors, and B and E the magnetic and electric
fields in the laboratory system, respectively. The magnetic
dipole moment μ and electric dipole moment d both point-
ing in the direction of the particle’s spin S are related to the
dimensionless quantities G (magnetic anomaly) and η in Eq.

We assume a vertical magnetic field and a radial electric
field, constant in time, forcing the particle on a circular orbit.
The three vectors B, E and v = βc are thus mutually orthog-
onal, as indicated in Fig. 1. In this case

(E + cβ B), B =|B| and E =|E|. The coordinate
system is chosen such that the first component points in radial
direction, the second in vertical and the third in longitudinal
direction. Note that β ×E is anti-parallel to B. This explains
the +sign in front of

up of a vertical polarization of a beam initially polarized in

In this case the build-up is linear in time to first order in η

ment should be performed with two bunches in the ring where
the polarizations are orthogonal to each other, which corre-
sponds to two phases ϕ

to miss an axion signal. This can also be seen in Fig. 2.It
