E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract: We propose a stimulated pulsed-radar collider to directly produce pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons as candidates for dark components in the Universe and simultaneously induce the decay by mixing two radar beams. We have extended formulae for stimulated resonant photon-photon scattering in a quasi-parallel collision system by including fully asymmetric collision cases. With a pulse energy of 100 J in the GHz-band, for instance, which is already achieved by an existing klystron, we expect that the modelindependent sensitivity can reach gravitationally weak coupling domains at a mass range 10−7 –10−6 eV, if two key technological issues are resolved: pulse compression in time reaching the Fourier transform limit, and single-photon counting for GHz-band photons. Such testing might extend the present horizon of particle physics. Keywords: Dark matter, Other experiments, Photon production, Exotics ArXiv ePrint: 1909.00983

Introduction
Since Rutherford’s experiment, the observation of quantum scattering processes caused by colliding energetic charged particles has unveiled deeper layers of nature at the microscopic. With knowledge gleaned from these particle collisions, the Standard Model (SM) of elementary particles is now almost confirmed, with the recent discovery of the Higgs boson providing another point of evidence for the SM. However, the SM is still unsatisfactory when trying to quantitatively understand the profile of the energy density of the universe as evaluated from macroscopic gravitational observables through curvatures in spacetime. In particular, atoms consisting of elements in the SM can explain only ∼ 5% of the observed energy densit
