摘要:

自LIGO/Virgo首次探测到引力波(GWs)以来,引力波作为一种新型互补探测手段,在帮助人类理解宇宙方面展现出巨大潜力。引力波搜寻的下一项挑战之一是随机引力波背景(SGWB)的探测与表征,它有望为极早期宇宙研究打开一扇窗口(宇宙学背景),并为我们提供天体物理源族的新信息(天体物理背景)。表征SGWB并提取其起源信息的一种途径是将其与其他宇宙学探测手段进行交叉关联。为此,本文探究了天体物理背景各向异性与宇宙微波背景(CMB)各向异性之间的交叉关联。该信号可通过引力波偏置反映原初非高斯性(nG)。据此,我们研究了下一代天基干涉仪探测此类交叉关联信号、并约束原初非高斯性的能力。

英文摘要:

Since the first LIGO/Virgo detection, Gravitational Waves (GWs) have been very promising as a new complementary probe to understand our Universe. One of the next challenges of GW search is the detection and characterization of the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB), that is expected to open a window on the very early Universe (cosmological background) and to provide us new information on astrophysical source populations (astrophysical background). One way to characterize the SGWB and to extract information about its origin is through the cross-correlation with other cosmological probes. To this aim, in this paper, we explore the cross-correlation between the astrophysical background anisotropies and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) ones. Such a signal is sensitive to primordial non-Gaussianity (nG) through the GW bias. Thus, we study the capability of next generation space-based interferometers to detect such a cross-correlation signal and to constrain primordial nG.
