论文摘要
我们提出了一个新颖的想法,以检测引力波实验中的暗光子。我们的设置能够执行深色光子生产,其衰减产品和新物理信号发现的整个过程。该迷你LHC的灵感来自于最近使用激光在壁(LSW)实验(例如阿尔卑斯山II)的光线下使用激光检测的思想。以从激光源发出的子频率作为新物理信号,我们表明我们的提案的敏感性比LSW研究中的原始思想要好2个数量级。
We propose a novel idea to detect a dark photon in gravitational wave experiments. Our setups are capable of performing the whole process of dark photon production, its decay products, and new physics signal discovery. This mini-LHC is inspired by the recent idea of dark photon detection using laser light in light shining through the wall (LSW) experiments such as ALPS II. Taking the subfrequency light emitted from the laser source as the new physics signal, we show that the sensitivity of our proposal is 2orders of magnitude better than the original idea in the LSW studies.
