E-mail: abonilla@fisica.ufjf.br, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. The observation of GW170817 binary neutron star (BNS) merger event has imposed strong bounds on the speed of gravitational waves (GWs) locally, inferring that the speed of GWs propagation is equal to the speed of light. Current GW detectors in operation will not be able to observe BNS merger to long cosmological distance, where possible cosmo- logical corrections on the cosmic expansion history are expected to play an important role, specially for investigating possible deviations from general relativity. Future GW detectors designer projects will be able to detect many coalescences of BNS at high z, such as the third generation of the ground GW detector called Einstein Telescope (ET) and the space-based detector deci-hertz interferometer gravitational wave observatory (DECIGO). In this paper, we relax the condition cT =c = 1 to investigate modified GW propagation where the speed of GWs propagation is not necessarily equal to the speed of light.

Weinstein,2, z Chao Zhang,1, x and Chunyu Zhang1, { 1School of Physics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, Hubei 430074, China 2LIGO Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, California 91125, USA Abstract Gravitational waves are perturbations of the metric of space-time. Six polarizations are possible, although general relativity predicts that only two such polarizations, tensor plus and tensor cross are present for gravitational waves. We give the analytical formulas for the antenna response functions for the six polarizations which are valid for any equal-arm interferometric gravitational- wave detectors without optical cavities in the arms. The response function averaged over the source direction and polarization angle decreases at high frequencies which deteriorates the signal-to-noise ratio registered in the detector. At high frequencies, the averaged response functions for the tensor and breathing modes fall of as 1=f 2, the averaged response function for the longitudinal mode falls off as 1=f and the averaged response function for the vector mode falls off as ln(f)=f 2. arXiv:1901.09624v3 [gr-qc] 26 Apr 2019 ∗ [email protected] y Corresponding author.

    Confronting the primordial black hole scenario with the gravitational-wave events detected by LIGO-Virgo Zu-Cheng Chen,1, 2, ∗ Chen Yuan,1, 2, y and Qing-Guo Huang1, 2, 3, 4, z 1CAS Key Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, Institute of Theoretical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China 2School of Physical Sciences, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, No. 19A Yuquan Road, Beijing 100049, China 3School of Fundamental Physics and Mathematical Sciences Hangzhou Institute for Advanced Study, UCAS, Hangzhou 310024, China 4Center for Gravitation and Cosmology, College of Physical Science and Technology, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China (Dated: August 27, 2021) Adopting a binned method, we model-independently reconstruct the mass function of primordial black holes (PBHs) from GWTC-2 and find that such a PBH mass function can be explained by a broad red-tilted power spectrum of curvature perturbations. Even though GW190521 with component masses in upper mass gap (m > 65M ) can be naturally interpreted in the PBH scenario, the events (including GW190814, GW190425, GW200105, and GW200115) with component masses in the light mass range (m < 3M ) are quite unlikely to be explained by binary PBHs although there are no electromagnetic counterparts because the corresponding PBH merger rates are much smaller than those given by LIGO-Virgo. Furthermore, we predict that both the gravitational-wave (GW) background generated by the binary PBHs and the scalar-induced GWs accompanying the formation of PBHs should be detected by the ground-based and space-borne GW detectors and pulsar timing arrays in the future. Introduction. Primordial black holes (PBHs) [1,2] are five gravitational-wave (GW) events [14{17].

These com- pact objects are extraordinarily efficient at producing electromagnetic and gravitational radiation. As such, they are ideal laboratories for fundamental physics and they have an immense discovery potential. The detection of merging black holes by third-generation Earth-based detectors and space-based detectors will provide exquisite tests of general relativity. Loud “golden” events and extreme mass-ratio inspirals can strengthen the observational evidence for horizons by mapping the exterior spacetime geometry, inform us on possible near-horizon modifications, and perhaps reveal a breakdown of Einstein’s gravity. Measure- ments of the black-hole spin distribution and continuous gravitational-wave searches can turn black holes into efficient detectors of ultralight bosons across ten or more orders of magnitude in mass.

Russell ‡ ‡ Unaffiliated, Anchorage, Alaska, United States of America Corresponding author: Daniel N. Russell ([email protected]) Reviewable v1 Received: 08 Apr 2018 | Published: 10 Apr 2018 Citation: Russell D (2018) Gravitational Wave Speed: Undefined. Experiments Proposed. Research Ideas and Outcomes 4: e25606. https://doi.org/10.3897/rio.4.e25606 Abstract Since changes in all 4 dimensions of spacetime are components of displacement for gravitational waves, a theoretical result is presented that their speed is undefined, and that the Theory of Relativity is not reliable to predict their speed. Astrophysical experiments are proposed with objectives to directly measure gravitational wave speed, and to verify these theoretical results. From the circumference of two merging black hole's final orbit, it is proposed to make an estimate of a total duration of the last ten orbits, before gravitational collapse, for comparison with durations of reported gravitational wave signals. It is proposed to open a new field of engineering of spacetime wave modulation with an objective of faster and better data transmission and communication through the Earth, the Sun, and deep space. If experiments verify that gravitational waves have infinite speed, it is concluded that a catastrophic gravitational collapse, such as a merger of quasars, today, would re-define the geometry and curvature of spacetime on Earth, instantly, without optical observations of this merger visible, until billions of years in the future. Keywords Gravitational waves; Spacetime; Gravitational collapse; Electromagnetic burst; Black holes; Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory; Quasar.

In this article, we numerically estimate the potential capabilities of the future networks of multiple space-based detectors using Bayesian analysis. We modify the public package Bilby and employ the sampler PyMultiNest to analyze the simulated data of the space-based detector networks, and investigate their abilities for source localization and testing the parity symmetry of gravity. In comparison with the case of an individual detector, we find detector networks can significantly improve the source localization. While for constraining the parity symmetry of gravity, we find that detector networks and an individual detector follow the similar constraints on the parity-violating energy scale MPV. Similar analysis can be applied to other potential observations of various space-based GW detectors. I.

Under certain conditions, the existence of a nearby third body can cause periodic exchange between eccentricity of an inner binary and relative inclination, known as Kozai-Lidov oscillations. We analyze features of the waveform from the inner binary system un- dergoing such oscillations. We find that variation caused due to the tertiary companion can be observed in the gravitational waveforms and energy spectra, which should be compared with those from isolated binaries and coplanar three-body system. The detections from future space-based interferometers will make possible the investigation of gravitational wave spectrum in mHz range and may fetch signals by sources addressed. PACS numbers: I.

  • The Gravitational Wave Background Signal from Tidal Disruption Events
    MNRAS 000,1{11 (2020) Preprint 28 July 2020 Compiled using MNRAS LATEX style file v3.0 The gravitational wave background signal from tidal disruption events Martina Toscani,1? Elena M. Rossi2, Giuseppe Lodato,1 1Dipartimento di Fisica, Universit`aDegli Studi di Milano, Via Celoria, 16, Milano, 20133, Italy 2Leiden Observatory, Leiden University, PO Box 9513, 2300 RA, Leiden, the Netherlands Accepted XXX. Received YYY; in original form ZZZ ABSTRACT In this paper we derive the gravitational wave stochastic background from tidal dis- ruption events (TDEs). We focus on both the signal emitted by main sequence stars disrupted by super-massive black holes (SMBHs) in galaxy nuclei, and on that from disruptions of white dwarfs by intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) located in glob- ular clusters. We show that the characteristic strain hc's dependence on frequency is shaped by the pericenter distribution of events within the tidal radius, and under stan- −1/2 dard assumptions hc / f . This is because the TDE signal is a burst of gravitational waves at the orbital frequency of the closest approach. In addition, we compare the background characteristic strains with the sensitivity curves of the upcoming genera- tion of space-based gravitational wave interferometers: the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), TianQin, ALIA, the DECI-hertz inteferometer Gravitational wave Observatory (DECIGO) and the Big Bang Observer (BBO). We find that the back- ground produced by main sequence stars might be just detected by BBO in its lowest frequency coverage, but it is too weak for all the other instruments. On the other hand, the background signal from TDEs with white dwarfs will be within reach of ALIA, and especially of DECIGO and BBO, while it is below the LISA and TianQin sensitive curves.
