abstract

Searches for high frequency gravitational waves using cavities based on the Gertsenshtein effect were recently proposed, building off existing axion dark matter experiments. In particular, the sensitivity of axion dark matter experiments using metamaterial plasmas (tunable plasma haloscopes) to gravitational waves has not been explored in detail. Here we perform a full analysis of gravitational wave detection in plasma haloscopes, showing that the baseline design of experiments such as ALPHA is several orders of magnitude less sensitive than previously thought. We show how simple changes to the experiment can recover that sensitivity and lead to a powerful gravitational wave detector in the order of $(10-50)$ GHz frequency range.

  1. Gravitational waves from self-resonance during reheating with a quantum-corrected inflaton potential

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Coleman-Weinberg correction that cancels the inflaton's quadratic term at the potential minimum triggers quartic self-resonance and a peaked GW background at 10^8-10^10 Hz; a negative quadratic term instead gives a ...

  2. Cavity Multimodes as an Array for High-Frequency Gravitational Waves

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A 9-cell microwave cavity's 18 modes can act as a synthetic detector array that reconstructs the direction, polarization, and chirp of a high-frequency gravitational-wave signal.

  3. Gravitational Photon Polarization Twist to Probe the Early Universe and the Galactic Center

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A long-baseline laser pulse whose polarization is twisted by gravitational waves could detect galactic-center pulsar and early-universe gravitational wave backgrounds.

  4. 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.
