Detecting Dark Domain Walls
read the original abstract
Light scalar fields, with double well potentials and direct matter couplings, undergo density driven phase transitions, leading to the formation of domain walls. Such theories could explain dark energy, dark matter or source the nanoHz gravitational-wave background. We describe an experiment that could be used to detect such domain walls in a laboratory experiment, solving for the scalar field profile, and showing how the domain wall affects the motion of a test particle. We find that, in currently unconstrained regions of parameter space, the domain walls leave detectable signatures.

Quantum corrections to symmetron fifth-force profiles
A Green's function method computes leading-order quantum corrections to symmetron fifth-force profiles near spherical sources in the planar limit, suggesting weaker forces than classical expectations for some parameters.
