abstract

If dark matter stems from the background of a very light gauge boson, this gauge boson could exert forces on test masses in gravitational wave detectors, resulting in displacements with a characteristic frequency set by the gauge boson mass. We outline a novel search strategy to hunt for such dark matter, and show that both ground-based and future space-based gravitational wave detectors have the capability to make a 5$\sigma$ discovery in unexplored parameter regimes.

Optimising ultra-light dark matter searches with ground-based interferometers

astro-ph.CO · 2026-06-08 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Incorporating sidereal modulation spectral features improves excess-power constraints on ultra-light dark matter by up to 36 percent at low frequencies, and an optimized cross-correlation statistic in the Band-Sampled-Data framework boosts sensitivity by up to 42 percent at low frequencies and 35 pe
