Abstract

The ARC Centre of Excellence in Engineered Quantum Systems, hosted at the University of Western Australia, has significant experience with microwave experiments, and novel resonator design. We believe there is much room for expansion and improvement in the design of resonators for haloscope searches, which are microwave cavity experiments designed to detect dark matter axions. We present schemes for novel haloscope resonators based on re-entrant cavities, dielectrics, and meta-materials.
