Benchmarking Dark Matter Search using a Parity-Check Protocol with Machine-Learning Optimized Pulses
Yu-Han Chang, Ilya Moskalenko, Marko KuzmanoviÄ +7
We report on an improved microwave detection protocol for dark matter candidates such as the axion and the dark photon. We employ a superconducting transmon qubit dispersively coup…
The COSMIC WISPers White Paper: The physics case for Weakly Interacting Slim Particles
Ariel Arza, Deniz Aybas, Shyam Balaji +124
Axions and other very weakly interacting slim particles (WISPs), with masses below 1 GeV, arise naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. In particula…
Exploring dark matter with quantum-enhanced haloscopes and time projection chambers
David DÃez-Ibáñez
This thesis explores experimental and theoretical approaches to dark matter detection, from gas-based detectors to quantum sensors, tackling the challenge of identifying dark matte…
Spatial resolution studies with the BabyIAXO Micromegas prototype
A. Quintana, J. Castel, S. Cebrián +20
The spatial resolution of the Micromegas prototype developed for the BabyIAXO experiment was evaluated using a low-energy X-ray beam at the SOLEIL synchrotron facility. BabyIAXO, c…
