SUMMARY:Results of the SHAFT experiment\, R. G. Herb Condensed Matter 
 Seminar\, Alexander Gramolin\, Riverlane
DESCRIPTION:I present the results of the SHAFT experiment at Boston Un
 iversity to search for axion-like dark matter in the mass range from 1
 2 peV to 12 neV. The experiment is sensitive to the oscillating magnet
 ic field that would be sourced by an axion-like dark matter halo of ou
 r Galaxy interacting with a strong static magnetic field in the lab. W
 e employ toroidal ferromagnetic cores made of powdered iron-nickel all
 oy to enhance the static magnetic field by a factor of 24. Using super
 conducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs)\, we achieve a magnet
 ic sensitivity of 150 aT/rtHz. This sensitivity allows us to improve\,
  over a part of our mass range\, the existing laboratory limits on the
  electromagnetic coupling of axion-like dark matter.
