GUEST: Gravitational Universe Exploration with Satellite Tracking. A passive satellite laser-ranging mission for the dark gravitational Universe
Diego Blas, Aurélien Hees, F. Javier Atapuerca +78
GUEST is a space mission concept whose central objective is the detection of gravitational waves (GWs) in the microhertz band -- a physics-rich frequency window that no other prese…
Global detector network to search for high-frequency gravitational waves (GravNet): conceptual design
Dorian Amaral, Diego Blas, Yuliia Borysenkova +30
We propose GravNet (Global detector network to search for high-frequency gravitational waves), a novel experimental scheme enabling the search for gravitational waves in the MHz to…
Crowdsourcing Gravitational Waves from Superradiant Axions
Sebastian A. R. Ellis, Orion Ning, Nicholas L. Rodd +1
Black hole superradiance is a powerful probe of ultralight axions. If nature contains a boson with a mass of order eV, will lead to…
Challenges and Opportunities of Gravitational Wave Searches above 10 kHz
Nancy Aggarwal, Odylio D. Aguiar, Diego Blas +34
The first direct measurement of gravitational waves by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations has opened up new avenues to explore our Universe. This white paper outlines the challenges…
Magnets are Weber Bar Gravitational Wave Detectors
Valerie Domcke, Sebastian A. R. Ellis, Nicholas L. Rodd
When a gravitational wave (GW) passes through a DC magnetic field, it couples to the conducting wires carrying the currents which generate the magnetic field, causing them to oscil…
Dark Matter Nuclear Magnetic Resonance is Sensitive to Dark Photons and the Axion-Photon Coupling
Carl Beadle, Sebastian A. R. Ellis, Jacob M. Leedom +1
We demonstrate that nuclear magnetic resonance based searches for dark matter (DM) have intrinsic and powerful sensitivity to dark photons and the axion-photon coupling. The reason…
