第一次搜索轴子和类轴子粒子与大型地下氙实验。在氙的轴电相互作用假设下，利用2013年收集的95个活日×118 kg的数据，对轴子与电子的耦合常数g_{Ae}进行了测试。双侧轮廓似然比统计检验排除了g_{Ae}大于3.5×10^{-12}（90% C.L.）关于太阳轴子假设Dine-Fischler-Srednicki-Zhitnitsky理论描述，耦合的上限对应于轴子质量的上限0.12 eV/c^{2}，而对于Kim-Shifman-Vainshtein-Zhakharov描述，超过36.6 eV/c^{2}的质量被排除在外。对于银河系类轴子粒子，当粒子质量在1-16 keV/c^{2}范围内时，g_{Ae}值不大于4.2×10^{-13}。这些是迄今为止对这些相互作用最严格的限制。
The first searches for axions and axionlike particles with the Large Underground Xenon experiment are presented. Under the assumption of an axioelectric interaction in xenon, the coupling constant between axions and electrons g_{Ae} is tested using data collected in 2013 with an exposure totaling 95 live days ×118 kg. A double-sided, profile likelihood ratio statistic test excludes g_{Ae} larger than 3.5×10^{-12} (90% C.L.) for solar axions. Assuming the Dine-Fischler-Srednicki-Zhitnitsky theoretical description, the upper limit in coupling corresponds to an upper limit on axion mass of 0.12 eV/c^{2}, while for the Kim-Shifman-Vainshtein-Zhakharov description masses above 36.6 eV/c^{2} are excluded. For galactic axionlike particles, values of g_{Ae} larger than 4.2×10^{-13} are excluded for particle masses in the range 1-16 keV/c^{2}. These are the most stringent constraints to date for these interactions.
