摘要:

在即将到来的天基干涉仪LISA的潜在毫赫兹引力波(GW)源中,有极端或中等质量比的螺旋(EMRI/IMRI)。这些事件涉及质量范围为$10^5 M_{\odot} \lesssim M \lesssim 10^7 M_{\odot}$的超大质量黑洞与质量小得多的黑洞的合并。一个子集的E/IMRIs预计将发生在吸积盘的活动星系核(AGN),在那里施加的扭矩盘可以干扰的inspiral,并导致相移的GW波形。在这里,我们使用一套二维流体动力学模拟与移动网格代码DISCO提出了一个系统的研究光盘扭矩。我们测量吸气BH上的扭矩,并计算相应的波形偏差作为二元质量比$q\equiv M_2/M_1$、圆盘粘度($α$)和气体温度(或等效马赫数; $\mathcal{M}$)的函数。我们发现,气体扭矩的绝对值是在先前确定的行星迁移扭矩的数量级,但其精确的值和符号依赖于这些参数的组合,非平凡的。对于嵌入活动星系核盘中的双星,其表面密度高于$Σ_0\ge10^{4-6} \rm \, g cm^{-2}$(取决于$q$、$α$和$\mathcal{M}$)的气体印记可以用激光束散射(LISA)检测到。在具有较高粘度的圆盘中,以及在LISA最敏感的频率处检测到的E/IMRI中,偏差最明显。在较冷的磁盘扭矩表现出显着的依赖于GW驱动的inspiral率,以及在后期阶段的inspiral的强烈波动。我们的研究结果进一步表明,LISA可能能够对活动星系核盘参数和盘-卫星相互作用的物理特性进行约束。

英文摘要:

Among the potential milliHz gravitational wave (GW) sources for the upcoming space-based interferometer LISA are extreme- or intermediate-mass ratio inspirals (EMRI/IMRIs). These events involve the coalescence of supermassive black holes in the mass range $10^5 M_{\odot} \lesssim M \lesssim 10^7 M_{\odot}$ with companion BHs of much lower masses. A subset of E/IMRIs are expected to occur in the accretion discs of active galactic nuclei (AGN), where torques exerted by the disc can interfere with the inspiral and cause a phase shift in the GW waveform. Here we use a suite of two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations with the moving-mesh code DISCO to present a systematic study of disc torques. We measure torques on an inspiraling BH and compute the corresponding waveform deviations as a function of the binary mass ratio $q\equiv M_2/M_1$, the disc viscosity ($α$), and gas temperature (or equivalently Mach number; $\mathcal{M}$). We find that the absolute value of the gas torques is within an order of magnitude of previously determined planetary migration torques, but their precise value and sign depends non-trivially on the combination of these parameters. The gas imprint is detectable by LISA for binaries embedded in AGN discs with surface densities above $Σ_0\ge10^{4-6} \rm \, g cm^{-2}$, depending on $q$, $α$ and $\mathcal{M}$. Deviations are most pronounced in discs with higher viscosities, and for E/IMRIs detected at frequencies where LISA is most sensitive. Torques in colder discs exhibit a noticeable dependence on the GW-driven inspiral rate as well as strong fluctuations at late stages of the inspiral. Our results further suggest that LISA may be able to place constraints on AGN disc parameters and the physics of disc-satellite interaction.
