Electromagnetic energy transfer processes in Effective Electro-Magneto Dynamics of axions

Abstract

Oscillating and dissipative energy exchange between the electromagnetic and axion fields is investigated in an effective electro-magneto dynamical (EEMD) model theory, implying the coexistence of axions with hypothetic magnetic charges. An exact formula is presented for the energy transfer between the electromagnetic and axionic sectors. In a first example we compute analytically the homogeneously oscillating electric and magnetic field configurations generated by the combined action of a constant static magnetic field and a periodically oscillating axion condensate. In the second example the electromagnetic radiative energy loss of a gravitationally bound axion configuration is computed in the EEMD model. As a result an asymptotic $\sim t^{1/5}$ temporal increase of the clump size is found also in EEMD.
