DESCRIPTION:The observation of Gravitational Waves (GWs) has opened up a w
 hole new avenue for constraining and detecting particle Dark Matter (DM). 
 One of the most promising systems to study is the Intermediate Mass Ratio 
 Inspiral (IMRI): a stellar-mass compact object such as a neutron star insp
 iraling towards an intermediate mass black hole\, thousands of times more 
 massive than the Sun. Sub-hertz GWs emitted during the inspiral should be 
 detectable by future space-based observatories such as LISA. But the prese
 nce of DM in the system can have subtle dynamical effects on the inspiral\
 , altering the waveform and hopefully allowing us to map out the DM distri
 bution. In addition\, multimessenger signals can arise when the DM is in t
 he form of QCD axions\, in which case the strong magnetic fields around th
 e neutron star allow the conversion of axions to radio photons. Joint obse
 rvations in GWs and radio would thus provide not only a detection of Dark 
 Matter\, but also a striking confirmation of its particle nature.\n\nhttps
