4 Why Ultralight Axion Dark Matter? [ 1 / 25] Small-scale problems with standard CDM. CDM predicts overabundance of sub-galactic structures. e.g.) core-cusp problem, etc. An ultralight scalar field (axion) DM resolves these issues because of effective quantum pressure. db = 2 mv ' 38 kpc ev m 10 3 v. No evidence of supersymmetry (neutralinos).
5 Ultralight Axion DM [ 2 / 25] Model : S = S EH + Z d 4 x p g apple 1 2 (@ )2 1 2 m2 2. Self-interaction and interactions with SM particles are suppressed by a large decay constant. f a Occupation number of axions in DM halo : N x 3 p 3 dm m(mv) dm 0.3 GeV/cm ev m 4. (v 10 3 = 300 km/s) A classical field description is quite good.

7 Oscillating Gravitational Potentials (1/2) [ 4 / 25] The oscillating pressure induce the oscillation of the gravitational potentials. Metric : ds 2 = (1 + 2 )dt 2 +(1 2 ) ij dx i dx j. Trace of the Einstein equation : R = T. 6 +2r 2 (2 )= 0 [1 + 3 cos(2mt)]. The oscillating part of satisfies 6 =3 0 cos(2mt).
8 Oscillating Gravitational Potentials (2/2) [ 5 / 25] Oscillating part of the gravitational potential : = dm 8m 2 cos(2mt). Amplitude & Frequency : dm = m2 dm 0.3 GeV/cm 3 f = 2m 2 = Hz m ev ev m. 2. This oscillating gravitational potentials can be detected by gravitational-wave detectors.

10 Pulsar Timing Array Experiments (1/2) [ 6 / 25] The oscillating gravitational potential induces an time delay in arrival time of pulsar signals, with angular frequency 2m and amplitude t = dm 8m 3 sin md + (~x) (~x p ). ~x : position of the detector, ~x p : position of the pulsar.

13 Signal on Laser Interferometers (1/3) [ 8 / 25] The solar system is moving through the DM halo with a velocity v 10 3 = 300 km/s. Hence, we feel the wind of axion! Since the axion wind looks like scalar gravitational waves, we can detect it by gravitational-wave laser interferometers. ˆn axion wind ˆm ~v

18 Axion in f(r) theory (1/2) [12 / 25] Since we focus on the gravitational interaction, the signal should be sensitive to the theory of gravity. The dark energy problem might be resolved by modified gravity theories. Hence, we should discuss the axion oscillation in f(r) theory, which is the simplest modified gravity. Z S = 1 2 d 4 x p g [R + f(r)] + S m. f(r) R, f R f 0 (R) 1
19 Axion in f(r) theory (2/2) [13 / 25] Field equation : 1 G µ 2 g µ f +(R µ + g µ r µ r )f R = T µ. Trace of the field equation : 3 f R + Rf R 2f R = T. This can be seen as the equation of motion for, f R i.e. f R is a dynamical degree of freedom. When f R, f and f R ' f R 1 R, we obtain 3 f R + R = dm [1 + 3 cos(2mt)].
20 Gravitational Potentials in f(r) theory (1/2) [14 / 25] 3 f R + R = dm [1 + 3 cos(2mt)]. The long-time average of the field equation gives R 0 hri = dm. Ricci scalar : R = 6 +2r 2 (2 ). The time-dependent part of the Ricci scalar is R R R 0 = R dm ' 6. Using the field equation, satisfies 2 = dm cos(2mt) fr.
21 Gravitational Potentials in f(r) theory (2/2) [15 / 25] 2 = dm cos(2mt) fr. The oscillating part of the gravitational potential : = dm 8m 2 cos(2mt)+1 2 f R hf R i. In f(r) theory, the oscillating gravitational potential is directly related to the extra dynamical degree of freedom f R. In order to see this more clearly, we introduce a scalar field ' f R (scalaron).
22 Axion in scalar-tensor theory (1/2) [16 / 25] Field equation : 3 f R + R = dm [1 + 3 cos(2mt)]. The equation of motion : ' + V e,' = dm cos(2mt). The effective potential is defined as V e,' = 1 3 A(') dm, ' = f 0 (A). Formula for the gravitational potential : = dm 8m 2 cos(2mt)+1 2 ' h'i.
23 Axion in scalar-tensor theory (2/2) [17 / 25] In order to obtain the time-dependent part of the gravitational potential, all we have to do is 1. calculating the effective potential, V e,' = 1 3 A(') dm, ' = f 0 (A). 2. solving the equation of motion, ' + V e,' = dm cos(2mt). 3. and substituting the solution into = dm 8m 2 cos(2mt)+1 2 ' h'i.
24 R 2 model (1/2) [18 / 25] We first consider the simplest model : f(r) = R2 6M 2. Effective potential : V e = 1 2 M 2 (' ' 0 ) 2, ' 0 f 0 ( dm )= dm 3M 2 Equation of motion : Solution : ' + M 2 (' ' 0 )= dm cos(2mt). ' = ' 0 + dm M 2 (2m) 2 cos(2mt).
25 R 2 model (2/2) [19 / 25] Oscillating gravitational potential : = E 1 (2m/M) 2 cos(2mt), E dm 8m 2 (a) M 2m : M 2m (b) : ' E cos(2mt). ' M 2m E cos(2mt) E. (c) M 2m : resonance!
26 Exponential model (1/4) [20 / 25] Exponential model : f(r) = R M 2 exp apple R 1 R 0. The solar-system test requires ' 0 f 0 ( dm ) = dm 3 M ev 2. & m M m The model can pass the solar-system test even if M 2m ev.

31 Summary [25 / 25] An ultralight axion with mass around candidate of DM ev is a The oscillating gravitational potential induced by the axion oscillating can, in principle, be detected by future gravitational-wave detectors. It is sensitive to models of gravity. Remarkably, a resonance could amplify the signal in f(r) theory. In the nonlinear case, there are many resonance points, and the signal could be detected by planned interferometers.
