Description

Black hole superradiance of dark photons that kinetically mix with the photon are spontaneously filled with an electron positron plasma which rotates around the black hole. The system results in a very luminous cloud, emitting across the whole electromagnetic spectrum. I will present results of a recent multimessenger search for continuous wave signals from pulsating sources and its interpretation in terms of dark photon signals from a population of galactic black holes.
