Cavity, lumped-circuit, and spin-based detection of axion dark matter: differences and similarities

Deniz Aybas, Hendrik Bekker, Dmitry Budker +12

Axions and axion-like particles are compelling candidates for ultralight bosonic dark matter, forming coherent oscillating fields that can be probed by experiments known as halosco…

Ultralight dark matter detection with levitated ferromagnets

Saarik Kalia, Dmitry Budker, Derek F. Jackson Kimball +7

Levitated ferromagnets act as ultraprecise magnetometers, which can exhibit high quality factors due to their excellent isolation from the environment. These instruments can be uti…

Searching for dark matter with a 1000 km baseline interferometer

Daniel Gavilan-Martin, Grzegorz Lukasiewicz, Mikhail Padniuk +8

Axion-like particles (ALPs) arise from well-motivated extensions to the Standard Model and could account for dark matter. ALP dark matter would manifest as a field oscillating at a…

Scalar dark matter induced oscillation of permanent-magnet field

I. M. Bloch, D. Budker, V. V. Flambaum +3

Scalar-field dark matter models imply small oscillations of fundamental constants. These oscillations could result in observable variations of the magnetic field in a permanent mag…

The Gildener-Weinberg two-Higgs doublet model at two loops

Estia J. Eichten, Kenneth Lane

The Gildener-Weinberg two-Higgs doublet model (GW-2HDM) provides a naturally light and aligned Higgs boson, . It has been studied in the one-loop approximation of its e…

Theory, phenomenology, and experimental avenues for dark showers: a Snowmass 2021 report

Guillaume Albouy, Jared Barron, Hugues Beauchesne +51

In this work, we consider the case of a strongly coupled dark/hidden sector, which extends the Standard Model (SM) by adding an additional non-Abelian gauge group. These extensions…

Intensity interferometry for ultralight bosonic dark matter detection

Hector Masia-Roig, Nataniel L. Figueroa, Ariday Bordon +12

Ultralight bosonic dark matter (UBDM) can be described by a classical wave-like field oscillating near the Compton frequency of the bosons. If a measurement scheme for the direct d…

Spectral signatures of axionlike dark matter

Alexander V. Gramolin, Arne Wickenbrock, Deniz Aybas +6

We derive spectral line shapes of the expected signal for a haloscope experiment searching for axionlike dark matter. The knowledge of these line shapes is needed to optimize an ex…

Goldstone Boson Scattering with a Light Composite Scalar

T. Appelquist, R. C. Brower, K. K. Cushman +14

The appearance of a light composite scalar resonance in nearly conformal gauge-fermion theories motivates further study of the low energy structure of these theories. To this…

Higgs alignment and the top quark

Estia J. Eichten, Kenneth Lane

There is a surprising connection between the top quark and Higgs alignment in Gildener-Weinberg multi-Higgs doublet models. Were it not for the top quark and its large mass, the co…

Near-conformal dynamics in a chirally broken system

Thomas Appelquist, Richard C. Brower, Kimmy K. Cushman +11

Composite Higgs models must exhibit very different dynamics from quantum chromodynamics (QCD) regardless whether they describe the Higgs boson as a dilatonlike state or a pseudo-Na…

Phenomenology of the new light Higgs bosons in Gildener-Weinberg model

Kenneth Lane, Eric Pilon

Gildener-Weinberg (GW) models of electroweak symmetry breaking are especially interesting because the low mass and nearly Standard Model couplings of the Higgs bos…

Linear Sigma EFT for Nearly Conformal Gauge Theories

T. Appelquist, R. C. Brower, G. T. Fleming +11

We construct a generalized linear sigma model as an effective field theory (EFT) to describe nearly conformal gauge theories at low energies. The work is motivated by recent lattic…
