- 요약Progress in fundamental physics requires new experimental data. The point of view of this thesis is that there are a finite, manageable number of signals that new physics could produce in the laboratory, and that each of them can be precisely searched for by dedicated experiments using modern technology. For example, axions only have three qualitatively different leading couplings, to photons, gluons, and fermions. I will discuss a new way to probe axion dark matter through each of these couplings, using excited superconducting cavities for the axion-photon coupling, nuclear spin-polarized haloscopes for the axion-gluon coupling, and magnetized multilayers for the axion-fermion coupling. Dark matter could also exist in the form of macroscopic clumps, or light particles. In the former case, I show that collisions of these clumps with stars produce distinctive transients, which can be effectively searched for with ultraviolet telescopes. In the latter case, I show that production of dark matter particles through the decays of light vector mesons can be detected in "missing energy" experiments. In all of the cases discussed, it is possible to improve sensitivity to these effects by orders of magnitude, using only existing technology. Finally, I will discuss the intriguing possibility that the known massless particles in nature actually have "continuous" spin. Though most effects of new physics emerge in the ultraviolet, I will show that this particular question can only be settled by looking in the far infrared, motivating an entirely new class of experiments.
