It is par(lwd)
^
The device's current setting of par(lwd) does not affect that used by
axis() (as called by some plot methods). So you have to call axis()
yourself. ?axis would have told you the default was 1.
There was a wishlist item on R-bugs (PR#7223) to change this recently, and
some counter-arguments -- search on the R-devel list archives for more
details.

I am unable to get the tick marks to appear thicker in plot. I have
tried things like
par(lw=2) but this only seems to affect other line thicknesses.
The use of axes directly fixes the problem because lw = 2 applies to
both the axis and the ticks.
Is there is way of feeding a single parameter to plot or setting a par
parameter to do this?
I am using R 1.9.0 on a windows 2000 platform.
