Description
I will present a new concept of a resonant, high frequency GW detector which operates on the basis of optical levitation. This detector will be sensitive to galactic BH superradiance signals, especially those from axions at the GUT scale. I will describe the working principle, the experimental progress, and the projected sensitivity of this detector to continuous GWs.
