The ALPS Collaboration runs a Light Shining through a Wall (LSW) experiment to search for photon oscillations into Weakly Interacting Sub-eV Particles (WISPS) often predicted by extensions of the Standard Model. The experiment is set up around a superconducting HERA dipole magnet at the site of DESY. Due to several upgrades of the experiment we are able to place limits on the probability of photon-WISP-photon conversions of a few x 10(-25). These limits result in today's most stringent laboratory constraints on the existence of low mass axion-like particles, hidden photons and minicharged particles. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.
