Testing the quasar Hubble diagram with LISA standard sirens

چکیده

Quasars have recently been used as an absolute distance indicator, extending the Hubble diagram to high redshift reveal a deviation from expansion history predicted for standard, $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}\mathrm{CDM}$ cosmology. Here we show that Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will efficiently test this claim with standard sirens at redshift, defined by coincident gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) observations of merger massive black hole binaries (MBHBs). Assuming fiducial cosmology generating mock siren data sets, evidence model respect alternative inferred quasar is investigated. By simulating many realizations possible future LISA observations, find 50% these (median result) four MBHB measurements suffice strongly differentiate between two models, while 14 yield similar result in 95% realizations. In addition, investigate measurement precision cosmological parameters function number observed sirens, finding 15 events on average achieve relative 5% ${H}_{0}$, reducing 3% 2% 25 40 events, respectively. Our investigation clearly highlights potential probe able accurately map Universe $z\ensuremath{\gtrsim}2$, tool cross-check cross-validate EM complementary GW observations.

Pre-merger Localization of Gravitational-wave Standard Sirens with Lisa: Triggered Search for an Electromagnetic Counterpart

Electromagnetic (EM) counterparts to supermassive black hole binary mergers observed by LISA can be localized to within the field of view of astronomical instruments (∼ 10deg) hours to weeks prior to coalescence. The temporal coincidence of any prompt EM counterpart with a gravitationally-timed merger may offer the best chance of identifying a unique host galaxy. We discuss the challenges posed...

Using Gravitational-wave Standard Sirens

Gravitational waves (GWs) from supermassive binary black hole (BBH) inspirals are potentially powerful standard sirens (the GW analog to standard candles) (Schutz 1986, 2002). Because these systems are well-modeled, the space-based GW observatory LISA will be able to measure the luminosity distance (but not the redshift) to some distant massive BBH systems with 1–10% accuracy. This accuracy is ...

Tuning Gravitationally Lensed Standard Sirens

Gravitational waves emitted by chirping supermassive black hole binaries could in principle be used to obtain very accurate distance determinations. Provided they have an electromagnetic counterpart from which the redshift can be determined, these standard sirens could be used to build a high redshift Hubble diagram. Errors in the distance measurements will most likely be dominated by gravitati...

A Hubble Diagram for Quasars

The cosmological model is at present not tested between the redshift of the farthest observed supernovae (z ∼ 1.4) and that of the Cosmic Microwave Background (z ∼1,100). Here we introduce a new method to measure the cosmological parameters: we show that quasars can be used as “standard candles” by employing the non-linear relation between their intrinsic UV and X-ray emission as an absolute di...

Delensing Gravitational Wave Standard Sirens with Shear and Flexion Maps

Supermassive black hole binary systems (SMBHB) are standard sirens – the gravitational wave analogue of standard candles – and if discovered by gravitational wave detectors, they could be used as precise distance indicators. Unfortunately, gravitational lensing will randomly magnify SMBHB signals, seriously degrading any distance measurements. Using a weak lensing map of the SMBHB line of sight...
