Abstract EN
We report a new technique of a multicathode counter (MCC) developed to search for hidden photon (HP) cold dark matter (CDM) with a mass from 5 to 500 eV.
The method is suggested in the assumption that HP-photon mixing causes emission of single electrons from a metal cathode if the mass of hidden photon mγ′ is greater than a work function of the metal φW.
The measured effect from HP should be dependent on φW and on the structure of electronic shells of the metal used as a cathode.
Potentially this can be used for a verification of the results obtained.
Some preliminary results for the upper limit for mixing parameter χ have been obtained for HP with a mass from 5 eV to 10 keV as a pure illustration of the potential of this technique.
The efforts are continued to refine the procedure of data treatment and to improve the work of MCC.
A new detector with a more developed design is under construction.
