Heterodyne Detection of Axion Dark Matter via Superconducting Cavities

Description

We will present a novel approach to detecting dark matter axions in a Superconducting RF cavity. The approach relies on axion-mediated transitions between nearly-degenerate resonant modes, leading to parametrically enhanced signal power for light axions. This approach could probe axion masses across fifteen orders of magnitude, all in a metre-scale cavity.
