چکیده

We investigate the coalescence of massive black hole ($M_{\rm BH}\gtrsim 10^{6}~\rm M_{\odot}$) binaries (MBHBs) at $63 \sigma$) overdense regions ($M_h\sim 10^{12}~\rm M_{\odot}$ dark matter halos $z = 6$) Universe. first analyse impact different resolutions and AGN feedback prescriptions merger rate, assuming instantaneous mergers. Then, we compute halo bias correction factor due to simulated region. Our predict rates that range between 3 - 15 $\rm yr^{-1}$ $z\sim 6$, depending run considered, after correcting for $\sim 20-30$. For our fiducial model, further consider effect delay in MBHB dynamical friction. find 83 per cent MBHBs will merge within Hubble time, 21 1 Gyr, namely age Universe > 6$. finally expected properties gravitational wave (GW) signals fraction LISA detectable events with high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR $>$ 5) 66-69 cent. However, identifying electro-magnetic counterpart these remains challenging poor sky localization that, loudest ($\mathcal M_c\sim 10^6~\rm $z=6$), is around 10 deg^2$.

Probing strong-field gravity and black holes with gravitational waves

Gravitational wave observations will be excellent tools for making precise measurements of processes that occur in very strong-field regions of spacetime. Extreme mass ratio systems, formed by the capture of a stellar mass body compact by a massive black hole, will be targets for planned space-based interferometers such as LISA and DECIGO. These systems will be especially powerful tools for tes...

Probing Black Holes and Relativistic Stars with Gravitational Waves

In the coming decade, gravitational waves will convert the study of general relativistic aspects of black holes and stars from a largely theoretical enterprise to a highly interactive, observational/theoretical one. For example, gravitational-wave observations should enable us to observationally map the spacetime geometries around quiescient black holes, study quantitatively the highly nonlinea...

Gravitational waves from inspiral into massive black holes

Space-based gravitational-wave interferometers such as LISA will be sensitive to the inspiral of stellar mass compact objects into black holes with masses in the range of roughly 10 solar masses to (a few) 10 solar masses. During the last year of inspiral, the compact body spends several hundred thousand orbits spiraling from several Schwarzschild radii to the last stable orbit. The gravitation...

Probing Distant Massive Black Holes with LISA

Idealized models are used to illustrate the potential of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) as a probe of the largely unknown population of cosmologically-distant Massive Black Holes (MBHs) and as a tool to measure their masses with unprecedented accuracy. The models suggest that LISA will most efficiently probe a MBH population of lower mass than the one found in bright quasars and ...

Gravitational waves versus black holes

It is argued that, in order for the gravitational field to be propagated as a wave, it is necessary for it to satisfy a further set of field equations, in addition to those of Einstein and Hilbert, and these equations mean there is a preferred coordinate frame, called the Global Inertial Frame, giving rise to a unique metric . The implication is that a true gravitational field is not compatible...
