We report on the results from a search for dark matter axions with the HAYSTAC experiment using a microwave cavity detector at frequencies between 5.6 and 5.8 GHz. We exclude axion models with two photon coupling gaγγ≳2×10−14 GeV−1, a factor of 2.7 above the benchmark KSVZ model over the mass range 23.15
