Earth as a transducer for ultralight bosonic dark-matter detection

Saarik Kalia, Ibrahim A. Sulai

Ultralight bosonic dark matter (UBDM) that couples to electromagnetism can generate an oscillating magnetic-field signal at the Earth's surface. This is referred to as the ``Earth…

Search for a solar-bound axion halo using the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches

Tatum Z. Wilson, Derek F. Jackson Kimball, Samer Afach +50

We report on a search for a gravitationally bound solar axion halo using data from the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches (GNOME), a worldwide arra…

A Multi-Messenger Search for Exotic Field Emission with a Global Magnetometer Network

Sami S. Khamis, Ibrahim A. Sulai, Paul Hamilton +38

Quantum sensor networks in combination with traditional astronomical observations are emerging as a novel modality for multi-messenger astronomy. Here we develop a generic analysis…

A Hunt for Magnetic Signatures of Hidden-Photon and Axion Dark Matter in the Wilderness

Ibrahim A. Sulai, Saarik Kalia, Ariel Arza +17

Earth can act as a transducer to convert ultralight bosonic dark matter (axions and hidden photons) into an oscillating magnetic field with a characteristic pattern across its surf…

What can a GNOME do? Search targets for the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches

S. Afach, D. Aybas Tumturk, H. Bekker +50

Numerous observations suggest that there exist undiscovered beyond-the-Standard-Model particles and fields. Because of their unknown nature, these exotic particles and fields could…

Search for topological defect dark matter with a global network of optical magnetometers

Samer Afach, Ben C. Buchler, Dmitry Budker +46

Ultralight bosons such as axion-like particles are viable candidates for dark matter. They can form stable, macroscopic field configurations in the form of topological defects that…

Quantum sensor networks as exotic field telescopes for multi-messenger astronomy

Conner Dailey, Colin Bradley, Derek F. Jackson Kimball +4

Multi-messenger astronomy, the coordinated observation of different classes of signals originating from the same astrophysical event, provides a wealth of information about astroph…

Characterizing atomic magnetic gradiometers for fetal magnetocardiography

I. A. Sulai, Z. J. DeLand, M. D. Bulatowicz +3

Atomic magnetometers (AMs) offer many advantages over superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) due to, among other things, having comparable sensitivity while not requ…

Efficient, Tightly-Confined Trapping of 226Ra

R. H. Parker, M. R. Dietrich, K. Bailey +10

We demonstrate a technique for transferring Ra atoms from a 3-dimensional magneto-optical-trap (MOT) into a standing wave optical dipole trap (ODT) in an adjacent chamber.…

Diffusive Suppression of AC-Stark Shifts in Atomic Magnetometers

I. A. Sulai, R. Wyllie, M. Kauer +3

In atomic magnetometers, the vector AC-Stark shift associated with circularly polarized light generates spatially varying effective magnetic fields which limit the magnetometer res…

Nuclear charge radius of He

P. Mueller, I. A. Sulai, A. C. C. Villari +15

The root-mean-square (rms) nuclear charge radius of ^8He, the most neutron-rich of all particle-stable nuclei, has been determined for the first time to be 1.93(3) fm. In addition,…
