Abstract

Light shining through a wall microwave cavity experiments have traditionally searched for paraphotons via the transmission of power from an actively driven cavity to a passive receiver cavity, with the two cavities separated by a barrier that is impenetrable to photons. We have extended this measurement technique to account for two-way coupling between the cavities. The presence of a paraphoton field can alter the resonance frequencies of the coupled cavity pair and as such measurements of cavity resonance frequencies can be used to constrain the paraphoton kinetic mixing parameter, χ.
