SUPERGALAX

The ambition of the project is to develop and realize a quantum-limited Superconducting Quantum Network detector capable to reveal single microwave photons (~10 GHz) with the Heisenberg limit of sensitivity and the quantum limit noise with a view to applying it to the search for galactic axions. INRiM will develop the Parametric Down Conversion (PDC) microwave photon source based on the Josephson Traveling Wave Parametric Amplifier (JTWPA) for the calibration of the detector.
