Lunar radio emission from dark photon dark matter
Ariel Arza
The dielectric surface of the Moon provides an efficient interface for the conversion of dark matter dark photons into radio waves. This work explores a novel detection strategy th…
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…
Search for Ultralight Dark Matter with Quantum Magnetometry in the Earth's Cavity
Ariel Arza, Yuanlin Gong, Jun Guo +12
Ultralight dark matter candidates, such as axions and dark photons, are leading dark matter candidates. They may couple feebly to photons, sourcing oscillating electromagnetic sign…
Geomagnetic constraints on Millicharged Dark Matter
Ariel Arza, Yuanlin Gong, Jing Shu +3
Millicharged particles are well-motivated dark matter candidates arising in many extensions of the Standard Model. We show that, despite their tiny coupling to photons, milli…
