abstract

We introduce the Broadband Reflector Experiment for Axion Detection (BREAD) conceptual design and science program. This haloscope plans to search for bosonic dark matter across the [10$^{-3}$, 1] eV ([0.24, 240] THz) mass range. BREAD proposes a cylindrical metal barrel to convert dark matter into photons, which a novel parabolic reflector design focuses onto a photosensor. This unique geometry enables enclosure in standard cryostats and high-field solenoids, overcoming limitations of current dish antennas. A pilot 0.7 m$^{2}$ barrel experiment planned at Fermilab is projected to surpass existing dark photon coupling constraints by over a decade with one-day runtime. Axion sensitivity requires $<10^{-20}$ W/$\sqrt{\textrm{Hz}}$ sensor noise equivalent power with a 10 T solenoid and 10 m$^{2}$ barrel. We project BREAD sensitivity for various sensor technologies and discuss future prospects.

  1. Dark Matter Haloscope with a Disordered Dielectric Absorber

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A disordered dielectric powder can act as a broadband dark-matter-to-photon conversion target, and the proposed DPHaSE experiment could probe QCD axions and dark photons in the 10 meV to 1 eV range.

  2. Broadband Search for Axion Dark Matter via Shift Current

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A proposed axion haloscope using shift-current difference frequency generation in the Weyl semimetal TaAs could probe QCD axions at 10-100 meV, assuming a 10^8 V/m, 100 ps THz drive field is achievable.

  3. Broadband phonon production from axion absorption

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Random nuclear spin orientations break momentum conservation, so axion absorption in crystals excites phonons across the whole Brillouin zone, yielding a broadband detection rate proportional to the phonon density of states.

  4. Axiverse Lampposts

    hep-ph 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In a hierarchical multi-axion theory with random couplings, axion field ranges shrink with 1/sqrt(N), generic axion–SM couplings are suppressed, but the QCD axion's coupling is unsuppressed.

  5. High-Frequency Gravitational Waves on BREAD

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    BREAD with single photon detectors could detect high-frequency gravitational waves at 0.05 to 200 THz, with projected strains as low as 1e-25 at 200 THz.

  6. String Theory and Grand Unification Suggest a Sub-Microelectronvolt QCD Axion

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    String-theoretic axions consistent with grand unification and proton decay are predicted to have masses in the 3e-11 to 1e-8 eV window, with at most 47 axions in the Kreuzer-Skarke ensemble.

  7. Enhanced Axion-wind near Earth's Surface

    hep-ph 2025-02 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A quadratically coupled ultralight scalar field develops a spatial profile around Earth that can boost the field-gradient 'axion wind' by orders of magnitude at low masses, and a nonzero incoming velocity removes the ...

  8. QCD Axion Dark Matter from level crossing with refined adiabatic condition

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Adiabatic level crossing between a QCD axion and an ALP can convert ALP dark matter into QCD axion dark matter, and a beat-frequency-based adiabatic condition maps the viable parameter region.

  9. Hunting for Axions in REactor neutrino COherent scattering Detection Experiment

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    RECODE, a reactor experiment with two germanium detectors, could probe axion-photon and axion-electron couplings into the cosmological triangle region at masses around 0.3 to 0.9 MeV.
