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…

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…
