abstract = "Optomechanical accelerometers have been proposed as detectors for vector ultralight dark matter. In this talk we present a cryogenic dark matter search using a resonant detector based on cm-scale nanomechanical membranes. Operating in a closed-cycle cryostat, we implement a custom vibration isolation system to suppress acoustic vibrations and enable thermalization to 4 K, and use photothermal frequency tuning to improve resonant detection bandwidth.",
