At the same time it serves as an intermediate stage towards the International Axion Observatory (IAXO). An integral component of this experiment is a low background X-ray detector with a high efficiency in the 1–10 keV energy range. Micromegas detectors are considered as baseline technology for BabyIAXO thanks to the relatively high efficiency and very low background level. Other detector technologies developed to reach better energy resolution while maintaining high efficiency and low background level are also under study. Inthis paper, we review the BabyIAXO design and present the analysis of data taken with he prototype of an IAXO Micromegas detector. A background level of 8.8 × 10−7 counts keV−1 cm−2 s−1 was reached. 000123916 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/AEI/CEX2019-000918-M$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/AEI/FPA2016-76978-C3-1-P$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/AEI/PID2019-108122GB-C32$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/788781/EU/Towards the detection of the axion with the International Axion Observatory/IAXOplus$$9This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 788781-IAXOplus$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/802836/EU/Axions and relatives across different mass scales/AxScale$$9This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 802836-AxScale$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/Juan de la Cierva Program-IJC2019-040686-I 000123916 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000123916 590__ $$a1.5$$b2023 000123916 592__ $$a0.514$$b2023 000123916 591__ $$aNUCLEAR SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY$$b16 / 40 = 0.4$$c2023$$dQ2$$eT2 000123916 593__ $$aNuclear and High Energy Physics$$c2023$$dQ2 000123916 591__ $$aPHYSICS, PARTICLES & FIELDS$$b19 / 31 = 0.613$$c2023$$dQ3$$eT2 000123916 593__ $$aInstrumentation$$c2023$$dQ2 000123916 591__ $$aPHYSICS, NUCLEAR$$b13 / 22 = 0.591$$c2023$$dQ3$$eT2 000123916 591__ $$aINSTRUMENTS & INSTRUMENTATION$$b50 / 76 = 0.658$$c2023$$dQ3$$eT2 000123916 594__ $$a3.2$$b2023 000123916 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000123916 700__ $$aBiasuzzi, B. 000123916 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-3532-7540$$aCastel, J.
