Probing Solar Symmetrons with Direct Detection
Hannah Banks, Anne-Christine Davis, Luca Visinelli
We provide the first investigation of the solar production of symmetrons, a well-motivated class of screened scalar fields with density dependent couplings to the Standard Model, a…
Searching for Ultralight Dark Matter with MOLeQuTE: a Massive Optically Levitated Quantum Tabletop Experiment
Louis Hamaide, Hannah Banks, Peter Barker +1
Many well theoretically motivated models of ultralight dark matter are expected to give rise to feeble oscillatory forces on macroscopic objects. Optically trapped sensors have hig…
Searching for screened scalar forces with long-baseline atom interferometers
Hannah Banks, John Carlton, Benjamin Elder +2
Screened scalars are ubiquitous in many dark-sector models. They give rise to non-trivial fifth forces whilst evading experimental constraints through density-dependent screening m…
Simulation of thermal conduction by asymmetric dark matter in realistic stars and planets
Hannah Banks, Stephanie Beram, Rashaad Reid +1
Dark matter captured in stars can act as an additional heat transport mechanism, modifying fusion rates and asteroseismoloigcal observables. Calculations of heat transport rates re…
A Nuclear Interferometer for Ultra-Light Dark Matter Detection
Hannah Banks, Elina Fuchs, Matthew McCullough
We propose the nuclear interferometer - a single-photon interferometry experiment based upon the thorium-229 nuclear clock transition - as a novel detector for ultra-light dark mat…
