Gravitational wave
Speed is the same as that of light.
Transverse wave and two polarizations
1.Gravitational wave

1.Gravitational wave Interaction of gravitational wave is too weak !
Artificial generation is impossible !
No experiment which corresponds to
Hertz experiment for electromagnetic wave
Astronomical events
Strain [(Change of length)/(Length)] : h ~ 10-21
(Hydrogen atom)/(Distance between Sun and Earth)
No direct detection until now

1. Gravitational wave Indirect detection of gravitational wave
Binary pulsar
(R.A. Hulse and J.H. Taylor,
Astrophysical Journal 195 (1975) L51.)
Generation of gravitational wave
Energy emission
Change of period of binary
Observed change of period agrees with theoretical
prediction by radiation formula of gravitational wave.

What is the motivation ?
Physics : Experimental tests for theory of gravitation
Astronomy : New window for astronomical observation
2.Aims of detection
No direct detection until now
12
Physics : Experimental tests for theory of gravitation
(1) Speed : Alternative theories of gravitation predict the difference of speed between gravitational wave and light.
2.Aims of detection
C.M. Will, “Theory and experiment in gravitational physics”(1993) Cambridge University Press.

2.Aims of detection (2) Polarization : Alternative theories of gravitation predict the 6 kinds of polarizations (General relativity : 2).

2.Aims of detectionAstronomy : New window for observation
Gravitational wave astronomy
Gravitational wave sources
(1) Burst source
(2) Periodic source
(3) Stochastic source
15
2.Aims of detection(1) Burst source : Supernova
Mechanism of the core-collapse SNe still unclear
Shock Revival mechanism(s) after the core bounce.
GWs generated by a SNe should bring information from the inner massive part of the process and could constrains on the core-collapse mechanisms.
M. Punturo, GWDAW Rome 2010

2.Aims of detection(1) Burst source : Compact binary coalescence

Asymmetry of shape
Structure of interior
Rotating neutron star

2.Aims of detection(3) Stochastic source (Background)
(a) Astronomical sources
Compact binary
(b) Cosmological sources (Early universe)
Cosmic Gravitational wave Background ?
Quantum fluctuation in inflation
Phase transition at early universe
(Grand Unified Theory(cosmic string), Electroweak, QCD, …)
19
3.Outlines of detectorsThere are a lot of kinds of detectors !
Resonant detector
Interferometer (on Earth)
Interferometer (Space)
Doppler tracking
Pulsar timing
Polarization of cosmic microwave background
and so on …
Frequency range : 10-18 Hz – 108 Hz

3.Outlines of detectorsResonant detector Gravitational wave excites resonant motion of elastic body.
Weber bar (most popular one)
Diameter : several tens cmLength : a few metersResonant frequency : about 1 kHz

3.Outlines of detectorsJoseph Weber (1919-2000) Pioneer of gravitational wave detection
He is one of persons who proposed the concept of laser.
Other persons (C.H. Townes, N.G. Basov, A.M. Prokhorov) won Nobel prize in Physics (1964).
He started development of resonant detector. J. Weber, Physical Review 117 (1960) 306.

3.Outlines of detectorsWeber event J. Weber, Physical Review Letters 22 (1969) 1302. “Evidence for discovery of gravitational radiation”
Coincidence between two detectors (Distance is 1000 km)
Direction of sources : Center of our galaxy
23
3.Outlines of detectorsHowever, …
No experimentalists could confirm Weber event
even if they used detectors with better sensitivity !
We do not know what caused Weber event,
but gravitational wave did not.
Theorists pointed out that our galaxy disappears in
short period if center of galaxy emits so large energy.

4.Recent results in observation
Future interferometers can detect gravitational wave.Current interferometers have never detected !
However, current interferometers have already provided scientific results in astronomy and cosmology.
(1) Gamma ray burst
(2) Crab pulsar
(3) Stochastic background
50
4.Recent results in observation
(1) Gamma ray burst
Gamma ray flashes with huge energy
1963 : Vela satellite (U.S.A.) found gamma ray burst.
R. Klebesadel et al., Astrophysical Journal 182 (1973) L85.
Nobody knows what they are and how much distances from Earth are.
Gamma ray bursts appear suddenly and disappear soon.
51
4.Recent results in observation
(1) Gamma ray burst
Revolutions in 1997
BeppoSAX (Italy, Netherlands)Wikipedia, English
Identification of optical counterpartMeasurement of distance(order of billion light years !)
J. van Paradijs et al., Nature 386 (1997) 686.D.E. Reichart, Astrophysical Journal 495 (1998) L99.
However, central engine is still unknown.
52
4.Recent results in observation
(1) Gamma ray burst
There are two categories.
Long gamma ray burst (more than 2 sec) Short gamma ray burst (less than 2 sec)
Central engine of short gamma ray burst
Compact binary coalescence ?
Neutron star – Neutron star, Black hole – Neutron star
If so, short gamma ray bursts generate gravitational wave !
53
4.Recent results in observation
(1) Gamma ray burst
GRB070201 (1 February 2007) Direction : Andromeda galaxy (M31) 0.77Mpc (about 2 million light years)
Only LIGO interferometers were in operation.
B. Abbott et al., Astrophysical Journal 681 (2008) 1419.
54
4.Recent results in observation
(1) Gamma ray burst
No signal was found !
This conclusion does not exclude current model in M31.However, some parameter regions are excluded.
If GRB070201 is in M31,
1 solar mass < m1 < 3 solar mass1 solar mass < m2 < 40 solar mass
This parameter region is excludedat >99% confidence.
B. Abbott et al., Astrophysical Journal 681 (2008) 1419.

4.Recent results in observation
(2) Crab pulsar
Crab nebulaWikipedia, English
Rotating neutron star in Crab nebula (Supernova in 1054)
Spin down : Loss of rotation kinetic energyUpper limit of gravitational wave
Asymmetry of pulsar generates gravitational wave.
h<1.4*10-24
One of the largest upper limits in pulsars
56
4.Recent results in observation
(2) Crab pulsar
Crab nebulaWikipedia, English
LIGO interferometers9 months data(Nov. 2005 - Aug. 2006)
h<2.7*10-25
No signal was found !
Upper limit of gravitational wave
Loss due to gravitational wave is less than 4% of total loss.
5 times smaller upper limit than that of spin-down
B. Abbott et al., Astrophysical Journal 683 (2008) L45.
57
4.Recent results in observation
(3) Stochastic background
Cosmological stochastic background gravitational wavecould be generated in early universe.
After that, D, He, Li were generated (in first three minutesof universe). We can observe quantity of generated these elements. Their quantities depend on the speed of universe expansion.
If energy density of stochastic background gravitational wave was too much, speed of universe expansion was different from our expectation.
58
4.Recent results in observation
(3) Stochastic background
So, energy density of stochastic gravitational wave background (around 100 Hz) must be 1.1*10-5 times smaller than average density of universe.
Big Bang nucleosynthesis
59
4.Recent results in observation
(3) Stochastic background
LIGO interferometers : about 2 years data(Nov. 2005 - Sep. 2007)Correlation between 2 interferometers
No correlation was found !
So, energy density of stochastic gravitational wave background (around 100 Hz) must be 6.9*10-6 times smaller than average density of universe.
1.6 times smaller upper limit than that of Big Bang nucleosynthesisSome models of early universe are ruled out.
B.P. Abbott et al., Nature 460 (2009) 990.

5.Summary Nobody has detected gravitational wave directly.
There are two kinds of motivation for direct detection;
physics and astronomy.
Resonant and interferometric detectors were constructed on Earth and are operated for observation.
Some scientific null results have already been obtained.
In near future, gravitational wave will be detected directly !
