Quantum relic axion detection sensors

Project funded by Research Council of Finland, grant 361336. Participating organisations named by the source: Aalto University. Funded amount: EUR 368,071, as stated by the source. Runs 2024-12-01 to 2027-11-30. Keywords: Physical sciences. Source: OpenAIRE Graph, from the funder's project data (collected by OpenAIRE on 2024-09-13); national funding data, not CORDIS. Abstract given by the source: Quantum technologies hold the promise of yielding unprecedented advantages in computing, sensing, and communication, by operating at the single quantum level. In this project, by using sensitive quantum sensors, we will investigate the possibility of a magneto-electric coupling in the Maxwells equations describing electromagnetic phenomena, which would lead to the presence of photons in a cavity subjected to an intense magnetic field. This modification, if correct, would have important consequences for our understanding of the large-scale structure of the universe.
