摘要:

未来的地基和空间引力波探测器为以更高精度检验广义相对论提供了前所未有的机会。本工作研究了未来地基引力波探测器爱因斯坦望远镜(ET)和宇宙探索者(CE),以及空间引力波探测器 LISA、太极和天琴在约束引力中宇称和洛伦兹破坏方面的能力。我们将若干来自致密双星系统的典型引力波信号注入引力波探测器,并利用包含宇称和洛伦兹破坏效应的修正波形进行贝叶斯推断。这些效应被建模为对引力波波形的振幅和相位修正,其频率依赖性由因子 $β_ν$、$β_μ$、$β_{\bar ν}$ 和 $β_{\bar μ}$ 描述。结果表明,与 LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA(LVK)探测器给出的结果相比,ET 和 CE 的联合观测将对宇称和洛伦兹破坏的能量标度($M_{\rm PV}$ 和 $M_{\rm LV}$)施加显著更紧的限制。对于 $β_ν$、$β_μ$、$β_{\bar ν}$ 和 $β_{\bar μ}$ 取正值的情形,地基探测器对 $M_{\rm PV}$ 和 $M_{\rm LV}$ 的约束比空间探测器更紧。对于 $β_μ = -1$ 的情形,空间引力波探测器对 $M_{\rm PV}$ 给出的约束优于当前 LVK 观测结果,并与 ET 和 CE 的约束相当。此外,空间探测器在约束 $β_{\bar μ} = -2$ 情形下的 $M_{\rm LV}$ 时表现出更优越的灵敏度,其约束比地基引力波探测器约紧三个数量级。该情形还使得对引力子质量的限制达到 $m_g \lesssim 10^{-35}\\; {\rm GeV}$。这些发现凸显了未来引力波天文台在探索广义相对论之外的基础物理方面的重要前景。

英文摘要:

The future ground- and space-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors offer unprecedented opportunities to test general relativity (GR) with greater precision. In this work, we investigate the capability of future ground-based GW detectors, the Einstein Telescope (ET) and the Cosmic Explorer (CE), and space-based GW detectors, LISA, Taiji, and TianQin, for constraining parity and Lorentz violations in gravity. We inject several typical GW signals from compact binary systems into GW detectors and perform Bayesian inferences with the modified waveforms with parity and Lorentz-violating effects. These effects are modeled in the amplitude and phase corrections to the GW waveforms with their frequency-dependence described by factors $β_ν$, $β_μ$, $β_{\bar ν}$, and $β_{\bar μ}$. Our results show that the combined observations of ET and CE will impose significantly tighter bounds on the energy scale of parity and Lorentz violations ($M_{\rm PV}$ and $M_{\rm LV}$) compared to those given by LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) detectors. For cases with positive values of $β_ν$, $β_μ$, $β_{\bar ν}$, and $β_{\bar μ}$, the constraints on $M_{\rm PV}$ and $M_{\rm LV}$ from ground-based detectors are tighter than those from the space-based detectors. For the $β_μ = -1$ case, space-based GW detectors provide constraints on $M_{\rm PV}$ that are better than current LVK observations and comparable to those from ET and CE. Additionally, space-based detectors exhibit superior sensitivity in constraining $M_{\rm LV}$ for $β_{\bar μ} = -2$ case, which is approximately three orders of magnitude tighter than those from ground-based GW detectors. This scenario also enables bounds on the graviton mass at $m_g \lesssim 10^{-35}\; {\rm GeV}$. These findings highlight the promising role of future GW observatories in probing fundamental physics beyond GR.
