摘要:

我们研究了具有真实性质分布的星系中超大质量双黑洞的演化以及来自这些黑洞宇宙布居的引力波辐射。我们将一个全面的治疗的BBH与他们的环境的动力学相互作用,包括星系三轴形状和内部恒星分布的影响,并产生大量的BBH演化轨迹。通过将这些BBH演化轨迹、星系质量函数、星系合并率以及超大质量黑洞与宿主星系的关系结合到我们的模型中,我们得到了幸存BBH、BBH合并率、它们的GW辐射强度以及宇宙BBH人口贡献的随机GW背景(GWB)的统计分布。在邻近星系中心的超大质量黑洞中,约有1%-3%(或10%)是质量比>1/3(或>1/100)的双星。GWB在1/yr频率下的特征应变幅估计为~ $2.0^{+1.4}_{-0.8}\times 10^{-16}$,在不同的BH-宿主星系关系下得到的结果的上界可达$5.4\times 10^{-16}$,有待未来实验的检验(例如,平方公里阵列,FAST,下一代超大型阵列)。GWB谱的翻转频率在~0.25nHz处。还讨论了上述估计的不确定性和检测单个源的前景。宇宙BBH人口的激光干涉仪空间天线(LISA)波段的应用提供了一个下限BBH的探测率LISA,~0.9/年。

英文摘要:

We investigate the evolution of supermassive binary black holes (BBHs) in galaxies with realistic property distributions and the gravitational-wave (GW) radiation from the cosmic population of these BBHs. We incorporate a comprehensive treatment of the dynamical interactions of the BBHs with their environments by including the effects of galaxy triaxial shapes and inner stellar distributions, and generate a large number of BBH evolution tracks. By combining these BBH evolution tracks, galaxy mass functions, galaxy merger rates, and supermassive black hole-host galaxy relations into our model, we obtain the statistical distributions of surviving BBHs, BBH coalescence rates, the strength of their GW radiation, and the stochastic GW background (GWB) contributed by the cosmic BBH population. About ~1%-3% (or ~10%) of supermassive BHs at nearby galactic centers are expected to be binaries with mass ratio >1/3 (or >1/100). The characteristic strain amplitude of the GWB at frequency 1/yr is estimated to be ~$2.0^{+1.4}_{-0.8}\times 10^{-16}$, and the upper bound of its results obtained with the different BH-host galaxy relations can be up to $5.4\times 10^{-16}$, which await testing by future experiments (e.g., the Square Kilometer Array, FAST, Next-Generation Very Large Array). The turnover frequency of the GWB spectrum is at ~0.25nHz. The uncertainties on the above estimates and prospects for detecting individual sources are also discussed. The application of the cosmic BBH population to the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) band provides a lower limit to the detection rate of BBHs by LISA, ~0.9/yr.
