Cornering the axion-like particle explanation of quasar polarisations
  In a series of paper, it has been shown that the distribution of polarisation position angles for visible light from quasars is not random in extremely large regions of the sky. As explained in a recent article, the measurement of vanishing circular polarisation for such quasars is an important problem for a mechanism involving the mixing with axion-like particles in external magnetic fields. In this note, we stress that a recent report of similar coherent orientations of polarisation in radiowaves further disfavours the need for such particles, as an effect at these wavelengths would be extremely suppressed or would directly contradict data.
