Direct measurement of the distribution of dark matter with strongly lensed gravitational waves

Shuo Cao et al.

Summary: This study presents a new approach to investigate the distribution of dark matter with elastic and velocity-independent self-interactions. By analyzing strongly lensed gravitational waves, the strength of self-scatterings can be determined, providing model-independent measurements of the shear viscosity of dark matter. These findings have significant implications for understanding the large-scale distribution and properties of dark matter.

Probing the Large-scale Structure of the Universe Through Gravitational Wave Observations

Xiaoyun Shao et al.

Summary: Improvements in the sensitivity of the gravitational wave network have enabled third-generation GW detectors to independently detect the large-scale structure of the universe through the clustering of binary black holes. The large redshifts of GW events make black hole catalogs a better choice than galaxy catalogs to probe the large-scale structure and cosmic evolution. Using the sky position of BBHs observed by third-generation GW detectors, we calculated the angular correlation function and bias factor of the BBH population, providing an independent method to understand the formation mechanisms and origin of BBH mergers.

On Dark Gravitational Wave Standard Sirens as Cosmological Inference and Forecasting the Constraint on Hubble Constant using Binary Black Holes Detected by Deci-hertz Observatory

Ju Chen et al.

Summary: The study explores the use of dark standard sirens, which rely on gravitational wave measurements, to constrain cosmological parameters. By combining the measurements of luminosity distance and localization of compact binary black hole mergers with deep redshift surveys, it is possible to accurately constrain the Hubble constant. The accuracy of the constraint depends on the accuracy of the luminosity distance and localization. The study also demonstrates that this method is robust and independent of the properties of the host galaxies of the black holes.

How will our knowledge of short gamma-ray bursts affect the distance measurement of binary neutron stars?

Minghui Du et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the effects of different Gaussian priors and detector configurations on distance measurement and cosmological research. The results show that a network of detectors can recognize more and farther events than a single detector, and adopting tighter prior and employing multiple detectors both decrease the error of luminosity distance.

DECi-hertz Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory: Forecast Constraints on the Cosmic Curvature with LSST Strong Lenses

Shuo Cao et al.

Summary: This paper aims to use the DECi-hertz Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (DECIGO) to provide gravitational-wave constraints on the cosmic curvature. The perfect redshift coverage of DECIGO, compared with lensing observations, makes cosmological-model-independent tests more natural and general. By focusing on different mass distributions for the lensing galaxies, the cosmic curvature is expected to be constrained with high precision, improving the sensitivity of existing constraints. However, the mass-density profiles of early-type galaxies should be taken into account for further investigation.

Direct Estimate of the Post-Newtonian Parameter and Cosmic Curvature from Galaxy-scale Strong Gravitational Lensing

Jun-Jie Wei et al.

Summary: In this study, Einstein's theory of general relativity (GR) is tested on kiloparsec scales using galaxy-scale strong gravitational lenses. The measurements of the parameterized post-Newtonian (PPN) parameter and the cosmic curvature indicate a strong degeneracy between the two quantities. The results provide a precise extragalactic test of GR with a fractional accuracy of better than 9.0%.

Tonghua Liu et al.

Summary: In this paper, an assessment of cosmic distance duality relation based on the latest observations of HII galaxies and ultra-compact structure in radio quasars is conducted using two machine learning reconstruction methods. The results show that the constraints on possible deviations from the CDDR at high redshifts are on the order of 10(-3), demonstrating good agreement with current observational data.

Elucidating cosmological model dependence with H-0

Eoin O. Colgain et al.

Summary: Studies have found that in specific cosmological models, errors on the Hubble constant H-0 may be larger than in Gaussian processes (GP) data reconstruction, attributed to stronger correlations. Additionally, cosmographic expansions can serve as another model-independent cosmological reconstruction method. Research indicates that cosmological model independence, especially in the discussion of Hubble tension, is no longer valid.

Machine learning the cosmic curvature in a model-independent way

Guo-Jian Wang et al.

Summary: This study determines the cosmic curvature Omega(K) using various methods, with the artificial neural network (ANN) method showing advantages over the Gaussian process (GP) method in overcoming prior influences. Results indicate a preference for a spatially open universe and suggest the ANN method has potential for accurate measurement of Omega(K) with a smaller error compared to other methods.

Measurements of the Hubble constant and cosmic curvature with quasars: ultracompact radio structure and strong gravitational lensing

Jing-Zhao Qi et al.

Summary: This study proposes an improved method to determine the Hubble constant and cosmic curvature simultaneously using ultracompact structures in radio quasars and strong gravitational lensing observations, yielding stringent constraints on H-0 (78.3 +/- 2.9 km s(-1) Mpc(-1)) and Omega(K) (0.49 +/- 0.24). Results show strong consistency with the local distance ladder in a flat universe model, while suggesting marginal compatibility with zero spatial curvature if using local H-0 measurement as a prior.

Testing F(R) Gravity with the Simulated Data of Gravitational Waves from the Einstein Telescope

Yu Pan et al.

Summary: In this paper, the implications of gravitational waves (GWs) as standard sirens on modified gravity models are analyzed using the third-generation GW detector, the Einstein Telescope. The analysis shows that GWs can effectively eliminate degeneracies among parameters in modified gravity models and investigate the nature of geometrical dark energy. The combination of future improved GW data and recent EM observations will reveal the consistency or tension between the ΛCDM model and modified gravity theories.

Summary: This study presents limits on the parameters of ΛCDM, w(0)CDM, and w(0)w(a)CDM models obtained from a joint analysis of various data sources, independent of cosmic microwave background data. The results show consistency of dark-energy equation of state parameter with a cosmological constant, as well as spatial curvature consistent with a flat universe. The study also demonstrates the strong constraints provided by full-shape and baryon acoustic oscillations data on nonminimal cosmological models.
