Description
Abstract: In this talk, I will discuss the constraint on the ALP-proton coupling from the water Cherenkov detector. In the first part, I will describe the production of energetic photons via a p \to p \gamma, induced by diffuse ALP flux in such a detector, and present the resulting bounds from Super-Kamiokande and Hyper-Kamiokande. In the latter part of my talk, I will discuss a more promising channel, compared to ap \to p \gamma to constrain ALP parameter space in the water Cherenkov detector.
