abstract
Dark gauge fields have been discussed as candidates for dark matter recently. If they existed, primordial dark magnetic fields during inflation would have existed. It is believed that primordial gravitational waves (PGWs) arise out of quantum fluctuations during inflation. We study the graviton-dark photon conversion process in the presence of background primordial dark magnetic fields and find that the process induces the tachyonic instability of the PGWs. As a consequence, a peak appears in the power spectrum of PGWs. It turns out that the peak height depends on the direction of observation. The peak frequency could be in the range from $10^{-5}$ to $10^{3}$ Hertz for GUT scale inflation. Hence, the observation of PGWs could provide a new window for probing primordial dark magnetic fields.

Toward graviton detection via photon-graviton quantum state conversion
Photon-to-graviton conversion in a magnetic field is shown to be enhanced by squeezed photon states and by the squeezed vacuum of primordial gravitational waves, with entanglement generation proposed as a quantum signature.
