Abstract

We study modifications of gravitational wave observables, such as the wave amplitude and frequency, which follow from the quantum equivalence principle, and are expressed in terms of the inertial, gravitational and rest masses of the LIGO/Virgo mirrors. We provide bounds on the violations of the quantum equivalence principle by comparing the results with the most resolved gravitational wave events observed by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration. The formalism is equally applicable to other future ground and space-based gravitational wave detectors.

用引力波检验量子等效原理

我们研究了引力波观测值的修正，例如波幅和频率，它们遵循量子等效原理，并以LIGO/Virgo反射镜的惯性质量、引力质量和静止质量表示。通过将结果与LIGO/Virgo合作观测到的最清晰的引力波事件进行比较，我们提供了违反量子等效原理的边界。这种形式同样适用于未来其他地面和天基引力波探测器。

期刊介绍： The journal welcomes manuscripts on theoretical models, simulations, and observations of highly energetic astrophysical objects both in our Galaxy and beyond. Among those, black holes at all scales, neutron stars, pulsars and their nebula, binaries, novae and supernovae, their remnants, active galaxies, and clusters are just a few examples. The journal will consider research across the whole electromagnetic spectrum, as well as research using various messengers, such as gravitational waves or neutrinos. Effects of high-energy phenomena on cosmology and star-formation, results from dedicated surveys expanding the knowledge of extreme environments, and astrophysical implications of dark matter are also welcomed topics.
