The nature of dark matter remains one of the preeminent mysteries
in physics and cosmology. It appears to require the existence of
new particles whose interactions with ordinary matter are
extraordinarily feeble. One well-motivated candidate is the axion,
an extraordinarily light neutral particle that may possibly be
detected by looking for their conversion to detectable microwaves
in the presence of a strong magnetic field. This has led to a
number of experimental searches that are beginning to probe
plausible axion model space and may reveal the axion in the near
future. These proceedings discuss the challenges of designing and
operating tunable resonant cavities and detectors at ultralow
temperatures. The topics discussed here have potential application
far beyond the field of dark matter detection and may be applied to
resonant cavities for accelerators as well as designing
superconducting detectors for quantum information and computing
applications. This work is intended for graduate students and
researchers interested in learning the unique requirements for
designing and operating microwave cavities and detectors for direct
axion searches and to introduce several proposed experimental
concepts that are still in the prototype stage.
