Large Anisotropies of the Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background from Cosmic Domain Walls
Large Anisotropies of the Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background from Cosmic Domain Walls
by Jing Liu, Rong-Gen Cai, and Zong-Kuan Guo - Apr 9, 2021

AbstractWe investigate the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) from cosmic domain walls (DWs) caused by quantum fluctuations of a light scalar field Φ during inflation. Large-scale perturbations of Φ  lead to large-scale perturbations of DW energy density and anisotropies in the SGWB. We find that the angular power spectrum of this SGWB is scale invariant and at least of the order of 10−2, which is a distinctive feature of observational interest. Since we have not detected primordial gravitational waves yet, anisotropies of the SGWB provide a nontrivial opportunity to verify the rationality of inflation and detect the energy scale of inflation, especially for low-scale inflationary models. Square kilometer array has the opportunity to detect the anisotropies of such SGWBs. The common-spectrum process observed recently by NANOGrav could also be interpreted by the SGWB from cosmic DWs.DOI:  10.1103/PhysRevLett.126.141303 https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.126.141303Phys.

Hubble parameter estimation via dark sirens with the lisa-taiji network
Hubble parameter estimation via dark sirens with the lisa-taiji network
by Renjie Wang, Wen-Hong Ruan, Qing Yang, Zong-Kuan Guo, Rong-Gen Cai, Bin Hu - Apr 1, 2021

AbstractThe Hubble parameter is one of the central parameters in modern cosmology, which describes the present expansion rate of the universe. Their values inferred from the late-time observations are systematically higher than those from the early-time measurements by about 10%. To come to a robust conclusion, independent probes with accuracy at percent levels are crucial. Gravitational waves from compact binary coalescence events can be formulated into the standard siren approach to provide an independent Hubble parameter measurement. The future space-borne gravitational wave observatory network, such as the LISA-Taiji network, will be able to measure the gravitational wave signals in the Millihertz bands with unprecedented accuracy. By including several statistical and instrumental noises, we show that within 5 years operation time, the LISA-Taiji network is able to constrain the Hubble parameter within 1% accuracy, and possibly beats the scatters down to 0.5% or even better.DOI:  10.1093/nsr/nwab054https://academic.oup.com/nsr/advance-article/doi/10.1093/nsr/nwab054/6207944National Science Review

China’s first step towards probing the expanding universe and the nature of gravity using a space borne gravitational wave antenna
China’s first step towards probing the expanding universe and the nature of gravity using a space borne gravitational wave antenna
by The Taiji Scientific Collaboration - Feb 24, 2021

AbstractIn this perspective, we outline that a space borne gravitational wave detector network combining LISA and Taiji can be used to measure the Hubble constant with an uncertainty less than 0.5% in ten years, compared with the network of the ground based gravitational wave detectors which can measure the Hubble constant within a 2% uncertainty in the next five years by the standard siren method. Taiji is a Chinese space borne gravitational wave detection mission planned for launch in the early 2030 s. The pilot satellite mission Taiji-1 has been launched in August 2019 to verify the feasibility of Taiji. The results of a few technologies tested on Taiji-1 are presented in this paper.DOI:10.1038/s42005-021-00529-zhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s42005-021-00529-zCommunications Physics 4, Article number: 34 (2021)  

Quenched ${g_A}$ in Nuclei and Emergent Scale Symmetry in Baryonic Matter
Quenched ${g_A}$ in Nuclei and Emergent Scale Symmetry in Baryonic Matter
by Yong-Liang Ma and Mannque Rho - Sep 30, 2020

Abstract The recent RIKEN experiment on the quenched gA in the superallowed Gamow-Teller transition from 100Sn indicates the role of scale anomaly encoded in the anomalous dimension β’of the gluonic stress tensor Tr G2μν. This observation provides support to the notion of hidden scale symmetry emerging by strong nuclear correlations with an infrared (IR) fixed point realized—in the chiral limit—in the Nambu—Goldstone mode. We suggest there is an analogy in the way scale symmetry manifests in a nuclear medium to the continuity from the unitarity limit at low density (in light nuclei) to the dilaton limit at high density (in compact stars). In between the limits, say, at normal nuclear matter density, the symmetry is not visible, hence hidden.DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.142501https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.142501Phys.

Contracting Arbitrary Tensor Networks: General Approximate Algorithm and Applications in Graphical Models and Quantum Circuit Simulations
by Feng Pan, Pengfei Zhou, Sujie Li, Pan Zhang - Aug 7, 2020

AbstractWe present a general method for approximately contracting tensor networks with an arbitrary connectivity. This enables us to release the computational power of tensor networks to wide use in inference and learning problems defined on general graphs. We show applications of our algorithm in graphical models, specifically on estimating free energy of spin glasses defined on various of graphs, where our method largely outperforms existing algorithms, including the mean-field methods and the recently proposed neural-network-based methods. We further apply our method to the simulation of random quantum circuits and demonstrate that, with a trade-off of negligible truncation errors, our method is able to simulate large quantum circuits that are out of reach of the state-of-the-art simulation methods.DOI:10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.060503https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.060503Phys.

Hopes and concerns for astronomy of satellite  constellations
Hopes and concerns for astronomy of satellite constellations
by Igor Levchenko, Shuyan Xu, Yue-Liang Wu and Kateryna Bazaka - Jun 29, 2020

AbstractThe historic launch of the frst several hundred out of 12,000 planned Starlink satellites heralds the arrival of the era of ultra-large satellite constellations. If it will bring new opportunities or insurmountable challenges to astronomy will probably depend on whether you are conducting your observations in space or from the surface of the Earth.Nature Astronomy (2020)延伸阅读————————————————————————探索宇宙的新时代已经到来——挑战与机遇并存引言人类对于浩瀚宇宙从来没有停止过观测和想象,早在上个世纪,摩托罗拉就提出过非常宏伟的星链计划,后来由于种种原因中断了卫星的发射工作,但这种星链的设想还是被一代又一代的科学家继承了下来。正文近日,国科大杭州高等研究院空间盘古实验室、新加坡南洋理工大学、中科院理论所、澳大利亚昆士兰大学、澳大利亚国立大学研究人员联合在《自然 天文》杂志上发表评论文章,结合“太极一号”卫星的发射和后期在轨测试,对卫星星座天文学的发展和展望进行了综述。2019年8月31号(北京时间)“太极一号”成功发射,取得了一系列宝贵的在轨测试数据,迈出了我国空间引力波探测的第一步。为探测大质量黑洞并合产生的低频引力波,太极计划最后一步将发射三颗卫星,形成边长300万公里的等边三角形编队星座,从而极大的推动仪器和观测天文学的发展。文章指出,使用分布式仪器系统收集天文和天体物理数据并非新的想法。目前已经有几个地面射电天文学仪器和光学望远镜系统组成的全球网络。直到近些年,在空间建立和维持一个庞大的分布式的天文仪器网络,仍然超出了工程技术和财政支持能力。但我们要看到,人工智能和新技术的发展又给这一分布式的计划增添了希望。文章强调,绕地球运行的卫星群如主动通信的立体卫星和商业小型卫星组成的大规模编队星座,又比如Taiji或欧洲对应的LISA,可能会带来新的技术能力,因为这种星座网络具有大面积覆盖特性,也更加具有灵敏度和灵活性。卫星编队星座最大的进步在于,使对遥远天体的探索在财政上变得更容易负担,同时降低了出现失败的风险。文章最后讨论了卫星编队星座对地面观测天文学的潜在威胁,目前正在建造的大规模的卫星群,可以用来支持导航、大地测量、电话和信息服务、宽带互联网、天气和气候监测、遥感等等。但很快,数以万计的这些卫星将照亮夜空,对地面天文学的运行环境构成威胁。当我们处于卫星星群爆炸性增长的同时,天文学家、卫星工程师和政策制定者以及其他可能的利益攸关方应共同努力,为这一潜在的有价值的技术发展找到一条双方都能接受的道路----保护我们已拥有的环境,同时拓展我们在空间上的探索能力。该综述文章作者包括:徐淑岩教授(太极一号霍尔微推系统负责人)、Igor Levchenko教授,吴岳良院士(太极计划首席科学家)、Kateryna Bazaka教授。该文章2020年6月29日上线,原文链接:Nat Astron (2020)https://doi.org/10.1038/s41550-020-1141-0该新闻稿转载自中国科学院大学官网

Very extreme mass-ratio bursts in the Galaxy and neighbouring galaxies in relation to space-borne detectors
Very extreme mass-ratio bursts in the Galaxy and neighbouring galaxies in relation to space-borne detectors
by Wen-Biao Han,Xing-Yu Zhong,Xian Chen and Shuo Xin - Jun 17, 2020

AbstractTwo recent papers (by Amaro-Seoane and Gourgoulhon and co-workers) revealed that in our Galaxy there are very extreme mass-ratio inspirals composed of brown dwarfs and a supermassive black hole at the centre of the Galaxy. The event rates estimated in these papers are very considerable for future space-borne detectors. In addition, there are plunge events during the formation of inspiralling orbits. In this work, we calculate the gravitational waves from compact objects (brown dwarfs, primordial black holes, etc.) plunging into or being scattered by the central supermassive black hole. We find that for space-borne detectors the signal-to-noise ratios of these bursts are quite high. The event rates are estimated as ∼ 0.01 yr–1 for the Galaxy. If we are lucky, this kind of very extreme mass-ratio burst will offer a unique chance to reveal the nearest supermassive black hole and nuclei dynamics. The event rate could be as large as 4∼8 yr–1 within 10 Mpc, and because the signal is strong enough for observations by space-borne detectors, we have a good chance of being able to probe the nature of neighbouring black holes.DOI: 10.1093/mnrasl/slaa115

Constraining gravitational-wave polarizations with Taiji
by Liu, Chang; Ruan, Wen-Hong; Guo, Zong-Kuan - Jun 8, 2020

AbstractSpace-based gravitational-wave detectors consist of a triangle of three spacecraft, which makesit possible to detect polarization modes of gravitational waves due to the motion of the detectors in space. In this paper we explore the ability of Taiji to detect the polarization modes in the parameterized post-Einsteinian framework. Assuming massive black hole binaries with the total mass of M = 4 × 105 M⊙ at redshift of z = 1, we find that Taiji can measure the dipole and quadruple emission (∆αD/αD and ∆αQ/αQ) with the accuracy of up to ∼ 0.04%, the scalar transverse and longitudinal modes (∆αB and ∆αL) up to ∼ 0.01, and the vector modes (∆αV ) up to ∼ 0.0005.https://arxiv.org/pdf/2006.04413.pdfPhys.
