Searching for Dark Clumps with Gravitational-Wave Detectors

Sebastian Baum, Michael A. Fedderke, Peter W. Graham

Dark compact objects ("clumps") transiting the Solar System exert accelerations on the test masses (TM) in a gravitational-wave (GW) detector. We reexamine the detectability of the…

New Projections for Dark Matter Searches with Paleo-Detectors

Sebastian Baum, Thomas D. P. Edwards, Katherine Freese +1

Paleo-detectors are a proposed experimental technique to search for dark matter (DM). In lieu of the conventional approach of operating a tonne-scale real-time detector to search f…

Paleo-detectors: Searching for Dark Matter with Ancient Minerals

Andrzej K. Drukier, Sebastian Baum, Katherine Freese +2

We explore paleo-detectors as an approach to the direct detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP) dark matter radically different from conventional detectors. Instead…

Searching for Dark Matter with Paleo-Detectors

Sebastian Baum, Andrzej K. Drukier, Katherine Freese +2

A large experimental program is underway to extend the sensitivity of direct detection experiments, searching for interaction of Dark Matter with nuclei, down to the neutrino floor…

Dark Matter implications of DAMA/LIBRA-phase2 results

Sebastian Baum, Katherine Freese, Chris Kelso

Recently, the DAMA/LIBRA collaboration released updated results from their search for the annual modulation signal from Dark Matter (DM) scattering in the detector. Besides approxi…

Dilute and dense axion stars

Luca Visinelli, Sebastian Baum, Javier Redondo +2

Axion stars are hypothetical objects formed of axions, obtained as localized and coherently oscillating solutions to their classical equation of motion. Depending on the value of t…
