We have searched for solar axions or similar particles that couple to two photons by using the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) setup with improved conditions in all detectors. From the absence of excess X-rays when the magnet was pointing to the Sun, we set an upper limit on the axion-photon coupling of 8.8 x 10^{-11} GeV^{-1} at 95% CL for m_a <~ 0.02 eV. This result is the best experimental limit over a broad range of axion masses and for m_a <~ 0.02 eV also supersedes the previous limit derived from energy-loss arguments on globular-cluster stars.

Catalogues of Cosmologically Self-Consistent Hadronic QCD Axion Models
Hadronic axion models with d=6 and d=7 heavy-quark decay operators can produce two new cosmologically viable 'islands' at f_a ~ 10^12 and 10^14 GeV, extending the post-inflationary axion search window.

Counting axions with IAXO
Projections for IAXO in two-axion parameter space plus spectral analysis of flavor oscillations show where the experiment can discriminate multi-axion signals from single-axion ones, extending to N-axion cases.
