Enhancing the sensitivity to ultralight bosonic dark matter using signal correlations

Soichiro Morisaki, Jun'ya Kume, Takumi Fujimori +1

In recent years, numerous experiments have been proposed and conducted to search for ultralight bosonic dark matter (ULBDM). Signals from ULBDM in such experiments are characterize…

Searches for ultralight vector and axion dark matter with KAGRA

Yuta Michimura, Takumi Fujimori, Hiroki Fujimoto +10

We have proposed using laser interferometric gravitational wave detectors to search for ultralight vector and axion dark matter. Vector dark matter can be probed through oscillatin…

Upper limit on scalar field dark matter from LIGO-Virgo third observation run

Koki Fukusumi, Soichiro Morisaki, Teruaki Suyama

If dark matter is a light scalar field weakly interacting with elementary particles, such a field induces oscillations of the physical constants, which results in time-varying forc…

Axion dark matter search using arm cavity transmitted beams of gravitational wave detectors

Koji Nagano, Hiromasa Nakatsuka, Soichiro Morisaki +3

Axion is a promising candidate for ultralight dark matter which may cause a polarization rotation of laser light. Recently, a new idea of probing the axion dark matter by optical l…

On the detectability of ultralight scalar field dark matter with gravitational-wave detectors

Soichiro Morisaki, Teruaki Suyama

An ultralight scalar field is one of the dark matter candidates. If it couples with Standard Model particles, it oscillates mirrors in gravitational-wave detectors and generates de…
