CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) is a direct dark matter search experiment, located at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) in Italy, where an overburden of 1400m of rock (3800m water equivalent) provides an efficient reduction of the cosmic radiation background.
In the CRESST experiment, ~24g scintillating $\mathrm{CaWO_4}$ crystals are used as...

I will present an a priori argument, why a Dirac triplet
should be the dark matter of the universe.

We investigate effects of axion (pseudoscalar), dilaton (scalar), dark photon (vector) and dark Z (pseudovector) which may be observed in atomic, molecular and solid state experiments.
Interaction with dark matter may lead to the variation of the size of the solid state resonators which may be observed using laser interferometry and resonance frequencies measurements [1].
Dark...

Maintaining high Q-factor of the superconducting cavity in a strong magnetic field at gigahertz frequencies is a crucial component in a highly sensitive axion detection system and at the same time, a largely unexplored and challenging task. The natural choice of material for the superconducting cavity to be placed in a high magnetic field is a high-temperature superconductor (HTS) with a high...
