Axion dark matter searches from the standard halo over the tidal stream to the big flow by Andrew K. Yi, Byeong Rok Ko

“…Since the ratio of signal windows is about 6500 between the standard halo and the big flow axion dark matter, each axion dark matter search usually uses a separate data acquisition (DAQ) channel with a different frequency resolution bandwidth (RBW). In this work, we demonstrate axion dark matter searches covering the standard halo, the tidal stream, and the big flow employing a DAQ channel starting with a single high resolution RBW, without sacrificing the DAQ efficiency, where the DAQ process includes online fast Fourier transforms and writing the outputs to disk. …”
