Abstract summary: We present an analysis method to search for exotic low-mass field (ELF) bursts generated during large energy astrophysical events. The associated gravitational waves or electromagnetic signals herald the arrival of the ELF burst that interacts via coupling to the spin of fermions in the magnetometers. We perform the first search with this technique on GNOME data coincident with the binary black hole merger S200311bg detected by LIGO/Virgo on the 11th of March 2020 and find no significant events.

Abstract: We present an analysis method to search for exotic low-mass field (ELF) bursts generated during large energy astrophysical events such as supernovae, binary black hole or binary neutron star mergers, and fast radio bursts using the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches (GNOME). In our model, the associated gravitational waves or electromagnetic signals herald the arrival of the ELF burst that interacts via coupling to the spin of fermions in the magnetometers. This enables GNOME to serve as a tool for multi-messenger astronomy. The algorithm employs a model-agnostic excess-power method to identify network-wide candidate events to be subjected to a model-dependent generalized likelihood-ratio test to determine their statistical significance. We perform the first search with this technique on GNOME data coincident with the binary black hole merger S200311bg detected by LIGO/Virgo on the 11th of March 2020 and find no significant events. We place the first lab-based limits on combinations of ELF production and coupling parameters.

We present a machine learning framework that performs complete BNS inference in just one second without making any approximations. Our approach enhances multi-messenger observations by providing (i) accurate localization even before the merger; (ii) improved localization precision by $sim30%$ compared to approximate low-latency methods; and (iii) detailed information on luminosity distance, inclination, and masses.

What can a GNOME do? Search targets for the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches [0.3508253542807453]
We present an overview of the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches (GNOME) GNOME searches for spatially and temporally correlated signals due to torques on atomic spins from exotic fields of astrophysical origin. We survey the temporal characteristics of a variety of possible signals currently under investigation such as those from topological defect dark matter (axion-like particle domain walls), axion-like particle stars, solitons of complex-valued fields (Q-balls), fluctuations of bosonic dark matter fields, a solar axion-like particle halo, and bursts of ultralight bosonic fields produced by cataclysmic

Searching for long faint astronomical high energy transients: a data driven approach [1.5851170136095292]
We introduce a new framework to assess the background count rate of a space-born, high energy detector. We employ a Neural Network (NN) to estimate the background lightcurves on different timescales. We test the new software on archival data from the NASA Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM), which has a collecting area and background level of the same order of magnitude to those of HERMES Pathfinder.

Deep Learning Models of the Discrete Component of the Galactic Interstellar Gamma-Ray Emission [61.26321023273399]
A significant point-like component from the small scale (or discrete) structure in the H2 interstellar gas might be present in the Fermi-LAT data. We show that deep learning may be effectively employed to model the gamma-ray emission traced by these rare H2 proxies within statistical significance in data-rich regions.

We study the effects of cavity mediated long range magnetic interactions and optical lattices in ultracold matter.

We find an improvement by a factor of 6 in sensitivity to signals with signal-to-noise ratio below 25. A conservative estimate indicates that our algorithm introduces on average 10.2 s of latency between signal arrival and generating an alert.

Quantum sensor networks as exotic field telescopes for multi-messenger astronomy [0.0]
Quantum sensor networks could be used to search for astrophysical signals predicted by beyond-standard-model (BSM) theories. We consider the case where high-energy astrophysical events could produce intense bursts of exotic low-mass fields (ELFs) We find that, indeed, such precision quantum sensor networks can function as ELF telescopes to detect signals from sources generating ELF bursts of sufficient intensity.

Proposal for an optical interferometric measurement of the gravitational red-shift with satellite systems [52.77024349608834]
Einstein Equivalence Principle (EEP) underpins all metric theories of gravity. The iconic gravitational red-shift experiment places two fermionic systems, used as clocks, in different gravitational potentials. A fundamental point in the implementation of a satellite large-distance optical interferometric experiment is the suppression of the first-order Doppler effect. We propose a novel scheme to suppress it, by subtracting the phase-shifts measured in the one-way and in the two-way configuration between a ground station and a satellite.
