Constraining the braneworld with gravitational wave observations.
Some braneworld models may have observable consequences that, if detected, would validate a requisite element of string theory. In the infinite Randall-Sundrum model (RS2), the AdS radius of curvature, l, of the extra dimension supports a single bound state of the massless graviton on the brane, thereby reproducing Newtonian gravity in the weak-field limit. However, using the AdS/CFT correspond...
متن کاملGravitational Wave Scintillation by a Stellar Cluster
General Relativity predicts the existence of gravitational waves that propagate in the vacuum with the speed of light. Analogously to electromagnetism, it is expected that gravitational waves might also be scattered by intervening particles 1,2,3 and micro-lensed by compact objects along the line of sight 4,5,6. Moreover, gravitational waves will be diffracted as they pass through a distributio...
متن کاملThe effect of variation of stellar dispersion velocities by the galactic latitude in interpreting gravitational microlensing observations
Our galaxy is a spiral galaxy and its stars are mostly in a thin disk and rotate around the galactic center. The vertical component of the dispersion velocity of stars is a function of the galactic latitude and decreases with increasing it. In the galactic Besancon model, this dependence is ignored and they just consider the dependence of dispersion velocity on the stellar age. Becanson model i...
متن کاملCurrent status of gravitational–wave observations
The first generation of gravitational wave interferometric detectors has taken data at, or close to, their design sensitivity. This data has been searched for a broad range of gravitational wave signatures. An overview of gravitational wave search methods and results are presented. Searches for gravitational waves from unmodelled burst sources, compact binary coalescences, continuous wave sourc...
متن کاملTesting post-Newtonian theory with gravitational wave observations
The Laser Interferometric Space Antenna (LISA) will observe supermassive black hole binary mergers with amplitude signal-to-noise ratio of several thousands. We investigate the extent to which such observations afford high-precision tests of Einstein’s gravity. We show that LISA provides a unique opportunity to probe the non-linear structure of post-Newtonian theory both in the context of gener...
