The Haloscope At Yale Sensitive To Axion Cold Dark Matter (HAYSTAC) experiment is featured in an article about their setup and their search for the axion candidate of dark matter using quantum-enhanced detection technologies on the Bluefors website. Bluefors offers industry standard cooling solutions for quantum technology, fundamental physics research, and groundbreaking applications. The article is called “Detecting Dark Matter: The HAYSTAC experiment at Yale University,” and is available to read here.

More about HAYSTAC

HAYSTAC is a tunable radiofrequency cavity resonator, which serves to build up the axion signal. HAYSTAC uses photon sensors often used for quantum computing, as well as an innovative quantum noise squeezing technique to speed up the data taking of the experiment. HAYSTAC is located at Wright Lab.  The Wright Lab team—co-led by Steve Lamoreaux, Eugene Higgins Professor of Physics and Reina Maruyama, professor of physics and astronomy—is responsible for systems engineering, cryogenics, and magnetics of the experiment.
