Galactic magnetic fields seeded by ultralight dark photons
Joshua Berger, Amit Bhoonah, Joseph Bramante +3
In this work, we show that ultralight dark photons, which couple to the Standard Model photon through kinetic mixing, can potentially source galactic scale magnetic fields. Althoug…
Novel Light Dark Matter Detection with Quantum Parity Detector Using Qubit Arrays
Xuegang Li, Yuxiang Liu, Jing Shu +6
We present the design and the sensitivity reach of the Qubit-based Light Dark Matter detection experiment. We propose the novel two-chip design to reduce signal dissipation, with q…
Probing axion and flavored new physics with the NA64 experiment
Haotian Li, Zuowei Liu, Ningqiang Song
High-energy muon beam dump experiments are powerful probes of new physics models beyond the Standard Model, particularly those involving flavor-dependent interactions. We demonstra…
Supernova cooling from neutrino-devouring dark matter
Yugen Lin, Chih-Ting Lu, Ningqiang Song
Supernova cooling provides a powerful probe of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), in particular for new, light states interacting feebly with SM particles. In this work, we in…
Searching for heavy millicharged particles from the atmosphere
Han Wu, Edward Hardy, Ningqiang Song
If millicharged particles (MCPs) exist they can be created in the atmosphere when high energy cosmic rays collide with nuclei and could subsequently be detected at neutrino experim…
Polarization Signals from Axion-Photon Resonant Conversion in Neutron Star Magnetosphere
Ningqiang Song, Liangliang Su, Lei Wu
Neutron stars provide ideal astrophysical laboratories for probing new physics beyond the Standard Model. If axions exist, photons can develop linear polarization during photon-axi…
