TI - Microwave hidden sector photons at UWA IS - DESY-PROC-2011-04 CY - Hamburg PB - Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron, DESY M1 - PUBDB-2016-01078 M1 - DESY-PROC-2011-04 SP - 64-67 PY - 2011 AB - In these proceedings we present the latest progress on our microwave cavity light shining through a wall hidden sector photon experiment, as well as introduce a new method of hidden sector photon detection. Our new experiment uses a high Q superconducting Niobium emitter cavity and moderate Q room temperature copper detector cavity separated by ample shielding. The projected sensitivity of our setup to the kinetic mixing factor is χ ∼ 1.8 ×10<sup>−8</sup> at a hidden sector photon mass of 52.1 μeV. A new technique for detecting hidden sector photons using a threshold crossing is also presented.
