Maximal axion misalignment from a minimal model
Abstract The QCD axion is one of the best motivated dark matter candidates. The misalignment mechanism is well known to produce an abundance of the QCD axion consistent with dark matter for an axion decay constant of order 1012 GeV. For a smaller decay constant, the QCD axion, with Peccei-Quinn symm...
