- This $449,946 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program will support research at Stanford University and the University of Washington to develop a novel axion detector called a haloscope. The haloscope is expected to improve the scan rate of axion dark matter experiments by more than three orders of magnitude at frequencies between 4-7 GHz. Researchers will fabricate and test a full-sized science-grade cavity under cryogenic conditions in...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) provides $560,000 in funding to Arizona State University to conduct research aimed at directly detecting dark matter particles. The primary goal is to develop a new system to search for ultra-low mass dark matter by examining how it interacts with nuclear spins. The research team plans to achieve a 30-fold improvement in energy sensitivity over current methods, which could not...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Physics awarded a $700,000 Project Grant to Yale University under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support the HAYSTAC Axion Dark Matter Experiment - Phase III. This effort aims to detect the theorized axion particle, which could comprise the unobserved "dark matter" that accounts for the majority of the mass in the universe. Key activities include upgrading the HAYSTAC detector system to expand its...
- This $190,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports the development of novel cavity haloscopes by researchers at Stanford University and the University of Washington to improve the scan rate of axion dark matter experiments by more than three orders of magnitude at frequencies between 4-7 GHz. The researchers will fabricate and test a full-sized science-grade cavity in an existing 250mK testbed to demonstrate...
- This Project Grant award, valued at $300,001.00 and funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports a collaborative research effort focused on exotic physics searches using magnetometer networks. The project, led by California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc., aims to advance experimental searches for ultralight bosonic fields such as axions and hidden photons that may constitute dark matter or arise in scenarios...
- This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $449,999.00 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) through the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The award supports the "Axion Resonant Interaction Detection Experiment" (ARIADNE) project, a collaborative research effort aimed at completing the setup of an experiment to detect axions - a potential form of dark matter. The project will train a team of postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and...
