Optimizing Superconducting Microwave Cavities for Gravitational Wave Sensing
Lars Fischer, Wolfgang Hillert, Tom Krokotsch +1
Superconducting microwave cavities loaded with radio frequency fields are a powerful tool to search for weak forces or electromagnetic perturbations due to new physics. One source…
Cryogenic RF characterization of the MAGO cavity for high-frequency gravitational-wave detection
Can Dokuyucu, Bianca Giaccone, Tom Krokotsch +13
Superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities are promising resonant sensors for gravitational-wave detection in the kHz-MHz frequency range. We report the cryogenic RF characteri…
First characterisation of the MAGO cavity, a superconducting RF detector for kHz-MHz gravitational waves
Lars Fischer, Bianca Giaccone, Ivan Gonin +12
Heterodyne detection using microwave cavities is a promising method for detecting high-frequency gravitational waves or ultralight axion dark matter. In this work, we report on stu…
Concept Study of a Storage Ring-based Gravitational Wave Observatory: Gravitational Wave Strain and Synchrotron Radiation Noise
Thorben Schmirander, Velizar Miltchev, Suvrat Rao +4
This work for the first time addresses the feasibility of measuring millihertz gravitational waves (mHz GWs) with a storage ring-based detector. While this overall challenge consis…
