abstract

We derive in detail the orbital period loss of a compact binary system in presence of a fifth force and radiation of ultralight particles for a general eccentric Keplerian orbit. We obtain constraints on fifth force strength $\alpha\lesssim 1.11\times 10^{-3}$ from the orbital period decay of compact binary systems. We derive constraints on the gauge coupling of ultralight scalar $(g_S\lesssim 3.06\times 10^{-20})$ and vector $(g_V\lesssim 2.29\times 10^{-20})$ particles from orbital period loss and the constraints get stronger in presence of a fifth force $(\alpha=0.9)$. In addition, we also obtain constraints on the axion decay constant $(7.94\times 10^{10}~\rm{GeV}\lesssim f_a\lesssim 3.16\times 10^{17}~\rm{GeV}, \alpha=0.9)$ if the orbital period decays due to the combined effects of axionic fifth force and axion radiation. We also achieve constraints on the strengths of the fifth force $(\alpha\lesssim 0.025)$ and radiation $(\beta\lesssim 10^{-3})$ from GW170817. The constraints on new force parameters depend on the choice of the initial eccentricity which we include in our analysis $(\epsilon_0=10^{-6}, 0.1)$. We do the model independent estimate of the capture of dark matter mass fraction by a binary system. Lastly, we obtain constraints on fifth force strength due to Brans-Dicke mediated scalar between two compact stars in a binary system $(\omega_{\rm{BD}}>266)$ and from the Nordtvedt effect $(\omega_{\rm{BD}}>75858)$. The bound on Brans-Dicke coupling gets stronger if one includes the effect of eccentricity. Our constraints can be generalized to any alternative theories of gravity and will be within the reach of second and third generation gravitational wave detectors.

    Each radiated graviton from a binary carries about 2ħ of angular momentum and each scalar or vector quantum about ħ, with the graviton result extended from elliptical to hyperbolic orbits.
