The Rydberg-Atom-Cavity Axion Search
Abstract
We report on the present progress in development of the dark matter axion search experiment with Rydberg-atom-cavity detectors in Kyoto, CARRACK I and CARRACK II. The axion search has been performed with CARRACK I in the 8 % mass range around 10 μ eV , and CARRACK II is now ready for the search in the wide range 2 μ eV - 50 μ eV . We have also developed quantum theoretical calculations on the axion-photon-atom system in the resonant cavity in order to estimate precisely the detection sensitivity for the axion signal. Some essential features on the axion-photon-atom interaction are clarified, which provide the optimum experimental setup for the axion search.
