Vector dark matter detection using the quantum jump of atoms

The hidden sector U(1) vector bosons created from inflationary fluctuations can be a substantial fraction of dark matter if their mass is around 10−5 eV. The creation mechanism makes the vector bosons' energy spectral density ρcdm/ΔE very high. Therefore, the dark electric dipole transition rat...
