Description

I will present various ways in which our group is searching for dark matter using GW detectors.

  1. Searching for GW signals from mergers of ultralight primordial black holes using LIGO data.

  2. Searching for direct interaction between dilatonic DM and LIGO.

  3. Searching for GWs from axion clouds around spinning black holes using a network of radio-frequency GW detectors.

  4. Searching for GWs from mergers of ultralight PBHs using a network of rafio-frequency GW detectors.
