Characterizing the quantum properties of ultralight dark matter -- an open quantum systems approach
Jose-Daniel Bernal, Ryan B. Petery, K. J. Joven +1
Obtaining insight into the constituents of dark matter and their interactions with normal matter has inspired a wide range of experimental efforts. Several approaches, particularly…
Nanomechanical testing of silica nanospheres for levitated optomechanics experiments
Cayla R. Harvey, Evan Weisman, Chethn Galla +5
Optically-levitated dielectric particles can serve as ultra-sensitive detectors of feeble forces and torques, as tools for use in quantum information science, and as a testbed for…
Mechanical Quantum Sensing in the Search for Dark Matter
Daniel Carney, Gordan Krnjaic, David C. Moore +32
Numerous astrophysical and cosmological observations are best explained by the existence of dark matter, a mass density which interacts only very weakly with visible, baryonic matt…
Searching for vector dark matter with an optomechanical accelerometer
Jack Manley, Mitul Dey Chowdhury, Daniel Grin +2
We consider using optomechanical accelerometers as resonant detectors for ultralight dark matter. As a concrete example, we describe a detector based on a silicon nitride membrane…
Searching for scalar dark matter with compact mechanical resonators
Jack Manley, Russell Stump, Dalziel Wilson +2
We explore the viability of laboratory-scale mechanical resonators as detectors for ultralight scalar dark matter. The signal we investigate is an atomic strain due to modulation o…
Decoherence of dipolar spin ensembles in diamond
Erik Bauch, Swati Singh, Junghyun Lee +8
We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of solid-state spin decoherence in an electronic spin bath, focusing specifically on ensembles of nitrogen vacancy (NV) col…
