Investigating a symmetric booster setup for MADMAX's dielectric haloscope — •Lolian Shtembari for the MADMAX collaboration — Max Planck Institute for Physics, Munich, Germany

The MADMAX experiment aims to directly detect galactic dark matter axions using the axion-induced emission of electromagnetic waves from boundaries between materials of different dielectric constants placed in a strong magnetic field. Carefully spacing many dielectric disks, their combined emission can be significantly enhanced (boosted) using constructive interference and resonances. In an attempt to reduce the complexity of the system and to gain an understanding of the flexibility and frequency response of the booster, we investigate the performance of a configuration made up of repeating symmetric sections of dielectric disks.
