Physical signatures of fermion-coupled axion dark matter

A Berlin, AJ Millar, T Trickle, K Zhou - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract In the presence of axion dark matter, fermion spins experience an “axion wind”
torque and an “axioelectric” force. We investigate new experimental probes of these effects …

Quantum entanglement of ions for light dark matter detection

A Ito, R Kitano, W Nakano, R Takai - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract A detection scheme is explored for light dark matter, such as axion dark matter or
dark photon dark matter, using a Paul ion trap system. We first demonstrate that a qubit …

Exploration to early universe by Josephson Junction Switching Current Detector

D Kondo - arxiv preprint arxiv:2407.13630, 2024 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we propose a method to probe a Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background
(SGWB) with Josephson Junction Switching Current Detector (JJSCD). The sensitivity for the …

Hunting axion dark matter with anti-ferromagnets: a case study with nickel oxide

PG Catinari, A Esposito, S Pavaskar - arxiv preprint arxiv:2411.11971, 2024 - arxiv.org
We show that nickel oxide, which is already a very promising target to look for sub-MeV dark
matter scattering, can be employed to hunt axion dark matter, with masses in the meV range …

Novel Searches for Physics Beyond the Standard Model

K Zhou - 2024 - search.proquest.com
Progress in fundamental physics requires new experimental data. The point of view of this
thesis is that there are a finite, manageable number of signals that new physics could …
