      abstract     = {Helioscopes are one of the most promising techniques for
                      axion discovery in which low background X-ray detectors are
                      mandatory. We report the latest developments of the
                      Micromegas detectors for the CERN Axion Solar Telescope
                      (CAST). The use of low background techniques has led to
                      background levels below
                      $10^{-6}$~c~keV$^{-1}$~cm$^{-2}$~s$^{-1}$, more than a
                      factor 100 lower than the first generation of Micromegas
                      detectors at CAST. The helioscope technique can be enhanced
                      by the use of an X-ray focusing device, increasing the
                      signal-to-background ratio. A new dedicated X-ray optic was
                      installed at CAST during 2014 with a low background
                      Micromegas in its focal plane. Apart from increasing
                      CAST’s sensitivity, the system has been conceived as a
                      technological pathfinder for the International Axion
                      Observatory IAXO.},
