Feasibility, engineering aspects and physics reach of microwave cavity experiments searching for hidden photons and axions
arXiv:0908.0759 · doi:10.1088/1748-0221/4/11/P11013
Abstract
Using microwave cavities one can build a resonant ``light-shining-through-walls'' experiment to search for hidden sector photons and axion like particles, predicted in many extensions of the standard model. In this note we make a feasibility study of the sensitivities which can be reached using state of the art technology.
