Abstract

A search for resonant absorption of 14.4 keV solar axions by a 57Fe target was performed. The Si(Li) detector placed inside the low-background setup was used to detect the γ-quanta appearing in the deexcitation of the 14.4 keV nuclear level: A+57Fe→57Fe*→57Fe+γ. The new upper limit for the hadronic axion mass has been obtained of m A ≤159 eV (95% c.l.) (S=0.5, z=0.56).
