二次$f(R)$引力中的引力辐射

On Gravitational Radiation in Quadratic $f(R)$ Gravity

Joachim Näf, Philippe Jetzer

摘要:

本文研究了具有Lagrange密度$f(R) = R + aR^2$的孤立系的引力辐射。作为形式结果,我们得到了对广义相对论四极公式的首阶修正。我们利用$f(R)$理论与标量张量理论的类比,与广义相对论相比,它具有额外的标量自由度。与广义相对论不同,在广义相对论中,主导阶的引力辐射是由四极矩产生的,而附加的自由度预测了所有多极子的引力辐射,特别是单极子和偶极子,因为这是今天已知的大多数替代引力理论的情况。应用于一个假设的脉冲双星在圆形轨道上移动产生的粗略限制$a \lesssim 1.7\cdot10^{17}\,\mathrm{m}^2$约束的偶极功率最多占1%的四极功率的预测广义相对论。

英文摘要:

We investigate the gravitational radiation emitted by an isolated system for gravity theories with Lagrange density $f(R) = R + aR^2$. As a formal result we obtain leading order corrections to the quadrupole formula in General Relativity. We make use of the analogy of $f(R)$ theories with scalar--tensor theories, which in contrast to General Relativity feature an additional scalar degree of freedom. Unlike General Relativity, where the leading order gravitational radiation is produced by quadrupole moments, the additional degree of freedom predicts gravitational radiation of all multipoles, in particular monopoles and dipoles, as this is the case for the most alternative gravity theories known today. An application to a hypothetical binary pulsar moving in a circular orbit yields the rough limit $a \lesssim 1.7\cdot10^{17}\,\mathrm{m}^2$ by constraining the dipole power to account at most for 1% of the quadrupole power as predicted by General Relativity.
