High-frequency gravitational waves detection with the BabyIAXO haloscopes
We present the first analysis using RADES-BabyIAXO cavities as detectors of high-frequency gravitational waves (HFGWs). In particular, we discuss two configurations for distinct frequency ranges of HFGWs: cavity 1, mostly sensitive at a frequency range of 252.8–333.2 MHz, and cavity 2, at 2.504–3.402 GHz, which is a scaled down version of cavity 1. We find that cavity 1 will reach sensitivity to strains of the HFGWs of order <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><a:mrow><a:msub><a:mrow><a:mi>h</a:mi></a:mrow><a:mrow><a:mn>1</a:mn></a:mrow></a:msub><a:mo>∼</a:mo><a:msup><a:mrow><a:mn>10</a:mn></a:mrow><a:mrow><a:mo>−</a:mo><a:mn>21</a:mn></a:mrow></a:msup></a:mrow></a:math>, while cavity 2 will reach <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><c:msub><c:mi>h</c:mi><c:mn>2</c:mn></c:msub><c:mo>∼</c:mo><c:msup><c:mn>10</c:mn><c:mrow><c:mo>−</c:mo><c:mn>20</c:mn></c:mrow></c:msup></c:math>. These represent the best estimations of the RADES-BabyIAXO cavities as HFGW detectors, showing how this setup can produce groundbreaking results in axion physics and HFGWs simultaneously.
