论文摘要
标准警笛技术的最有希望的变化结合了二进制中子星(BNS)合并的重力波(GW)数据,其电磁(EM)对应物启用了红移测量,以限制宇宙学参数,例如$ h_0 $ h_0 $,$ ph_0 $,$ ph_m $ $ $ $ w_0 $。在这里,我们评估了未来GW观测值时代多通电工宇宙学的近期和长期前景:高级Ligo Plus(A+,2025),类似Voyager的探测器(2030S)和类似宇宙Explorer的探测器(CE,CE,2035及以后)。我们表明,对于A+的BNS视野距离约为700 $ MPC,与Vera C. Rubin天文台(VRO)的灵敏度相匹配。我们发现,鉴于专门针对企业的GW目标GW随访的少量投资,一年的A+和VRO观察结果将限制$ H_0 $的价值。在Voyager时代,BNS-Kilonova的观测开始限制$ω_m$,投资占VRO时间的百分之几。在宇宙探险家时代的BNS距离较大的情况下,轴上短伽玛射线爆发(SGRB)及其余星(尽管仅伴随一些GW检测的合并)取代了Kilonovae,这是红shift识别的最有希望的对应物。我们表明,与宇宙探险家般的设施进行了五年的联合观察,以及具有与当前使用Swift相似的本地化功能的下一代伽马射线卫星,可能会限制$ω_m$ $ $ $ $ w_0 $至$ 15-20 \%。因此,我们主张使用VRO进行强大的目标(也是)计划,以及在2030年代具有提高灵敏度的宽场伽马射线卫星,以启用具有下一代重力波动设施的标准Siren Cosmology。
The most promising variation of the standard siren technique combines gravitational-wave (GW) data for binary neutron star (BNS) mergers with redshift measurements enabled by their electromagnetic (EM) counterparts, to constrain cosmological parameters such as $H_0$, $Ω_m$, and $w_0$. Here we evaluate the near- and long-term prospects of multi-messenger cosmology in the era of future GW observatories: Advanced LIGO Plus (A+, 2025), Voyager-like detectors (2030s), and Cosmic Explorer-like detectors (CE, 2035 and beyond). We show that the BNS horizon distance of $\approx 700$ Mpc for A+ is well-matched to the sensitivity of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory (VRO) for kilonova detections. We find that one year of joint A+ and VRO observations will constrain the value of $H_0$ to percent-level precision, given a small investment of VRO time dedicated to target-of-opportunity GW follow-up. In the Voyager era, the BNS-kilonova observations begin to constrain $Ω_m$ with an investment of a few percent of VRO time. With the larger BNS horizon distance in the Cosmic Explorer era, on-axis short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) and their afterglows (though accompanying only some of the GW-detected mergers) supplant kilonovae as the most promising counterparts for redshift identification. We show that five years of joint observations with Cosmic Explorer-like facilities and a next-generation gamma-ray satellite with localization capabilities similar to that presently possible with Swift could constrain both $Ω_m$ and $w_0$ to $15-20\%$. We therefore advocate for a robust target-of-opportunity (ToO) program with VRO, and a wide-field gamma-ray satellite with improved sensitivity in the 2030s, to enable standard siren cosmology with next-generation gravitational wave facilities.
