Abstract

We analyze nuclear internal-pair-transition experiments for evidence of a possible 1.7-MeV axion and find that the conventional axion and the new axions described by the theories of Krauss and Wilczek and of Peccei, Wu, and Yanagida are inconsistent with these data. The results are independent of nuclear models.
