نویسندگان
چکیده
Space-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors, including LISA, Taiji and TianQin, are able to detect mHz GW signals produced by mergers of supermassive black hole binaries, which opens a new window for astronomy. In this article, we numerically estimate the potential capabilities future networks multiple space-based detectors using Bayesian analysis. We modify public package bilby employ sampler pymultinest analyze simulated data detector networks, investigate their abilities source localization testing parity symmetry gravity. comparison with case an individual detector, find can significantly improve localization. While constraining gravity, that follow similar constraints on parity-violating energy scale ${M}_{\mathrm{PV}}$. Similar analysis be applied other observations various detectors.

The first space-based gravitational-wave detectors
Gravitational waves provide a laboratory for general relativity and a window to energetic astrophysical phenomena invisible with electromagnetic radiation. Several terrestrial detectors are currently under construction, and a space-based interferometer is envisioned for launch early next century to detect test-mass motions induced by waves of relatively short wavelength. Very-long-wavelength gr...
متن کاملThe Angular Resolution of Space-Based Gravitational Wave Detectors
The era of gravitational astronomy is nearly here. In the next few years, ground-based laser gravitational wave detectors will begin to come on line and, it is hoped, space-based detectors will soon follow. Even if the ground-based detectors do not succeed in detecting the waves within the next decade, the space-based detectors will certainly be able to, so the physics goal of the detection of ...
متن کاملUnequal arm space-borne gravitational wave detectors
Abstract Unlike ground-based interferometric gravitational wave detectors, large space-based systems will not be rigid structures. When the end-stations of the laser interferometer are freely flying spacecraft, the armlengths will change due to variations in the spacecraft positions along their orbital trajectories, so the precise equality of the arms that is required in a laboratory interferom...
متن کاملTesting Gravity with Gravitational Wave Source Counts
We show that the gravitational wave source counts distribution can test how gravitational radiation propagates on cosmological scales. This test does not require obtaining redshifts for the sources. If the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR, ρ) from a gravitational wave source is proportional to the strain then it falls as R−1, thus we expect the source counts to follow dN/dρ ∝ ρ−4. However, if gravita...
متن کاملCorrelated magnetic noise in global networks of gravitational-wave detectors: Observations and implications
One of the most ambitious goals of gravitational-wave astronomy is to observe the stochastic gravitational-wave background. Correlated noise in two or more detectors can introduce a systematic error, which limits the sensitivity of stochastic searches. We report on measurements of correlated magnetic noise from Schumann resonances at the widely separated LIGO and Virgo detectors. We investigate...
