Photons as a Probe of Minicharged Particles

Abstract

Low energy experiments with photons can provide deep insights into fundamental physics. In this note we concentrate on minicharged particles. We discuss how they can arise in extensions of the standard model and how we can search for them using a variety of laboratory experiments.
