Explore an innovative approach to dark matter detection in this one-hour journal club discussion. Join Gadi Afek, Daniel Carney, and David C. Moore as they present their groundbreaking method using levitated spheres to search for light dark matter particles. Learn about their detector that measures momentum imparted by dark matter scattering off optically trapped nanometer-scale spheres, offering a novel way to detect particles with masses as low as fractions of an electron's mass. Dive into the research outlined in their Physical Review Letters paper, "Coherent Scattering of Low Mass Dark Matter from Optically Trapped Sensors." Engage with the presenters during a Q&A session moderated by Rafael Lang, gaining deeper insights into this cutting-edge intersection of dark matter research and atomic, molecular, and optical physics.
