abstract

Superconducting cavities can operate analogously to Weber bar detectors of gravitational waves, converting mechanical to electromagnetic energy. The significantly reduced electromagnetic noise results in increased sensitivity to high-frequency signals well outside the bandwidth of the lowest mechanical resonance. In this work, we revisit such signals of gravitational waves and demonstrate that a setup similar to the existing "MAGO" prototype, operating in a scanning or broadband manner, could have sensitivity to strains of $\sim 10^{-22} - 10^{-18}$ for frequencies of $\sim 10 \ \text{kHz} - 1 \ \text{GHz}$.
