AI 中文摘要
双黑洞并合事件GW250114是迄今探测到的最响亮的引力波信号,为精确检验爱因斯坦广义相对论(GR)提供了机会。其异常高的信噪比使得能够精确测量准正规模(QNMs)以及残余黑洞的性质。在本工作中,我们利用RingCWB算法对GW250114进行了振铃分析。我们测量了主导的(2,2,0)准正规模及其第一泛音,并约束了频率和阻尼时间相对于广义相对论预言值的分数偏差,得到δf_220 = 0.004_{-0.023}^{+0.022}和δτ_220 = 0.010_{-0.087}^{+0.096},两者在给出的不确定度范围内均与零一致。这些结果代表了对于广义相对论偏差的严格约束。该分析还对残余自旋施加了严格限制,其结果与通过恒星演化形成的双黑洞一致。
英文摘要
The binary black hole merger GW250114, the loudest gravitational-wave signal detected to date, offers an opportunity to perform a precise test of Einstein's general relativity (GR). Its exceptionally high signal-to-noise ratio enables accurate measurements of the quasi-normal modes (QNMs) and properties of the remnant black hole. In this work, we present a ringdown analysis of GW250114 using the RingCWB algorithm. We measure the dominant $(2,2,0)$ QNM along with its first overtone and constrain the fractional deviations in frequency and damping time from their GR-predicted values, finding $δf_{220} = 0.004_{-0.023}^{+0.022}$ and $δτ_{220} = 0.010_{-0.087}^{+0.096}$ , both consistent with zero within the quoted uncertainties. These results represent stringent constraints on deviations from GR. The analysis also places tight constraints on the remnant spin, consistent with a binary black hole formed through stellar evolution.
