Detection Prospects of Dark Matter in Einstein Telescope
Abstract
We improve the calculations of the elastic motion induced by the dark matter hits on the surface of the mirror equipped with the interferometer for gravitational waves detection. We focus on the discovery potential of such a dark matter signal on the third-generation European gravitational waves detector, the Einstein Telescope. By taking the thickness of mirror into account, more than one resonances are predicted in the sensitive regime of high frequency interferometer. When mass of dark matter is heavier than a few PeV or is highly boosted, the signal-to-noise ratio could exceed one, and Einstein Telescope should be about to detect this dark matter signal.
