Descripción
The QCD axion solves the strong CP problem and it is a natural dark matter candidate. Although its mass and couplings are determined by non-perturbative QCD effects I will show that they can be extracted with percent accuracy, partially exploiting the foreseen experimental accuracy in case of discovery. Furthermore I will discuss the unreliability of the usual instanton estimates and study the impact on dark matter and cosmology.
