Holographic DC SQUID in the presence of dark matter

Abstract: The gauge-gravity duality has been applied to examine the properties of holographic superconducting quantum device (SQUID), composed of two S-N-S Josephson junctions, influenced by dark sector modelled by the additional $U(1)$-gauge field coupled to the ordinary Maxwell one. The dark matter sector is known to affect the properties of superconductors and is expected to enter the current-phase relation. The kinetic mixing between two gauge fields provides a mechanism allowing for the conceivable observation of the effect. We find small but visible effect of the dark matter particle traversing the device, which shows up as a change of its maximal current.
