畴壁的光学效应
Optical effects of domain walls
摘要:
畴壁出现在离散对称性(如$\mathbb{Z}_{N}$)的自发对称性破缺的理论中,并且是许多BSM模型的特征。在这项工作中,我们考虑通过其光学效应检测畴壁的可能性,并指定三种不同的方法耦合畴壁的光子。我们认为,这些耦合的背景下,引力波探测器,如LIGO的影响,并检查这些实验的灵敏度域壁效应。在引力波探测器不敏感的情况下,我们检查我们的结果在轴子实验的背景下,并显示如何通过域壁的影响可以检测到在干涉仪搜索轴子信号。
英文摘要:
Domain walls arise in theories where there is spontaneous symmetry breaking of a discrete symmetry such as $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$ and are a feature of many BSM models. In this work we consider the possibility of detecting domain walls through their optical effects and specify three different methods of coupling domain walls to the photon. We consider the effects of these couplings in the context of gravitational wave detectors, such as LIGO, and examine the sensitivity of these experiments to domain wall effects. In cases where gravitational wave detectors are not sensitive we examine our results in the context of axion experiments and show how effects of passing domain walls can be detected at interferometers searching for an axion signal.
