偏心双星的引力波记忆

The gravitational-wave memory from eccentric binaries

Marc Favata

摘要:

非线性引力波记忆对引力波极化产生了随时间变化但无振荡的修正。它起源于引力波,而引力波又是由引力波产生的。以前的非线性记忆效应的考虑集中在准圆双星。在这里,我考虑的非线性记忆从牛顿轨道任意偏心率。波形极化和自旋加权球谐模的表达式推导出椭圆,双曲,抛物线和径向轨道。在双曲线,抛物线,和径向的情况下,非线性记忆提供了一个2.5后牛顿(PN)校正的领先阶波形。这与椭圆和准圆形情况相反,在椭圆和准圆形情况下,非线性存储器以前导(0 PN)阶校正波形。PN阶的这种差异是由于双曲线情况下的记忆在短的“散射”时间尺度上积累,而椭圆情况下的记忆在长得多的辐射反应时间尺度上积累。这里提出的非线性记忆校正完成我们的知识的领先阶(Peters-Mathews)波形的椭圆轨道。这些计算也是相关的双星准圆轨道在本时代,在过去,大偏心率。由于非线性记忆敏感地依赖于过去的演变的二进制,我讨论了这种早期偏心率的后期记忆的值在近循环二进制的效果。我还讨论了大的“记忆跳跃”的可观测性,在一个二进制的过去,可能会出现从它的形成在一个捕获过程。最后,我提供的估计的信噪比的线性和非线性记忆从双曲和抛物线二进制。

英文摘要:

The nonlinear gravitational-wave memory causes a time-varying but nonoscillatory correction to the gravitational-wave polarizations. It arises from gravitational waves that are sourced by gravitational waves. Previous considerations of the nonlinear memory effect have focused on quasicircular binaries. Here, I consider the nonlinear memory from Newtonian orbits with arbitrary eccentricity. Expressions for the waveform polarizations and spin-weighted spherical-harmonic modes are derived for elliptic, hyperbolic, parabolic, and radial orbits. In the hyperbolic, parabolic, and radial cases the nonlinear memory provides a 2.5 post-Newtonian (PN) correction to the leading-order waveforms. This is in contrast to the elliptical and quasicircular cases, where the nonlinear memory corrects the waveform at leading (0PN) order. This difference in PN order arises from the fact that the memory builds up over a short "scattering" time scale in the hyperbolic case, as opposed to a much longer radiation-reaction time scale in the elliptical case. The nonlinear memory corrections presented here complete our knowledge of the leading-order (Peters-Mathews) waveforms for elliptical orbits. These calculations are also relevant for binaries with quasicircular orbits in the present epoch which had, in the past, large eccentricities. Because the nonlinear memory depends sensitively on the past evolution of a binary, I discuss the effect of this early-time eccentricity on the value of the late-time memory in nearly circularized binaries. I also discuss the observability of large "memory jumps" in a binary's past that could arise from its formation in a capture process. Lastly, I provide estimates of the signal-to-noise ratio of the linear and nonlinear memories from hyperbolic and parabolic binaries.
