The Axion is a particle arising from the Peccei-Quinn solution to the strong
CP problem. Peccei-Quinn symmetry breaking in the early universe could produce
a large number of axions which would still be present today, making the axion a
compelling dark matter candidate. The goal of the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment
(ADMX) is to detect these relic axions through their conversion to photons in a
strong magnetic field. Results are presented from a recent ADMX data-taking,
along with plans for the next phase of ADMX, which will allow the experiment to
explore a significant fraction of the favored dark matter axion mass and
coupling phase space.
