We derive a lower bound on the sensitivity of generic mechanical and electromagnetic gravitational wave detectors. We consider both classical and quantum detection schemes, although we focus on the former. Our results allow for a simple reproduction of the sensitivities of a variety of experiments, including optical interferometers, resonant bars, optomechanical sensors, and electromagnetic conversion experiments. In the high-frequency regime, all detection schemes we consider can be characterised by their stored electromagnetic energy and the signal transfer function, which we provide. We discuss why high-frequency gravitational wave searches are especially difficult and primordial gravitational wave backgrounds might not be detectable above the sensitivity window of existing interferometers.

  1. Particle production from bubble collisions

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Heavy particles are produced in bubble-wall collisions by on-shell partonic scatterings, not by off-shell decay of the classical field, so the earlier rates and their phenomenological signals are parametrically overestimated.

  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. Dark Matter Nuclear Magnetic Resonance is Sensitive to Dark Photons and the Axion-Photon Coupling

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    CASPEr-Gradient, an NMR axion search, could simultaneously probe dark photon kinetic mixing to about 3e-16 and axion-photon coupling to about 2e-16 GeV^-1 near a mass of 1 micro-eV.

  4. The price for monopole dark matter

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Dark matter can consist of 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles in a dark SU(2) sector, but only in a narrow window with m_M ≳ 10^8 GeV, near-bound dark radiation, and possibly detectable gravitational waves.

  5. Searching Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background Landscape Across Frequency Bands

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A hybrid cosmic string–domain wall model can fit the NANOGrav 15-year signal, and its high-frequency tail lies within LISA's projected reach, making the interpretation testable.
