The potential of photon-magnon hybrid systems as building blocks for quantum information science has been widely demonstrated, and it is still the focus of much research. We leverage the strengths of this unique heterogeneous physical system in the field of precision physics beyond the standard model, where the sensitivity to the so-called “invisibles” is currently being boosted by quantum technologies. Here, we demonstrate that quanta of spin waves, induced by effective magnetic fields, can be detected in a large frequency band using a hybrid system as transducer. This result can be applied to the search of cosmological signals related, for example, to cold Dark Matter, which may directly interact with magnons. Our model of the transducer is based on a second-quantisation two-oscillators hybrid system, it matches the observations, and can be easily extended to thoroughly describe future large-scale ferromagnetic haloscopes. Precision magnetometry has emerged as a sensitive means to probe spin dynamics at a fundamental level. Here, a broadband a photon-magnon hybrid system is demonstrated, capable of detecting quanta of magentisation induced by tiny effective magnetic fields
