Abstract

A low background Micromegas X-ray detector has been used to search for solar axions in the CAST experiment at CERN. The detector has an active area of 7cm times 7cm, excellent spatial resolution (~70nm), and good energy resolution. It is built using low radioactivity materials and the obtained background level is below 5times10 -5 counts/keV/cm 2 /s. The detector is being upgraded for the second phase of the experiment (2006-2007) with a reduced active area. A focusing X-Ray optic and improved shielding will be used to further reduce the background by approximately two orders of magnitude.
