Axion dark matter search with a photonic bandgap cavity haloscope and dielectric tuning rod over 10.25-10.45 GHz

Morgan Lynn, Ankur Agrawal, Arjun Ghosh +4

We report the development of a new widely tunable cavity and demonstrate its use in a search for dark matter axions. We achieve unloaded quality factors above $10^5$, roughly $25…
