1212.2970 (Dieter Horns et al.)

Searching for WISPy Cold Dark Matter with a Dish Antenna    [PDF]

Dieter Horns, Joerg Jaeckel, Axel Lindner, Andrei Lobanov, Javier Redondo, Andreas Ringwald
The cold dark matter of the Universe may be comprised of very light and very weakly interacting particles, so-called WISPs. Two prominent examples are hidden photons and axion-like particles. In this note we propose a new technique to sensitively search for this type of dark matter with dish antennas. The technique is broadband and allows to explore a whole range of masses in a single measurement.
