Constraining extra gravitational wave polarizations with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA and upper bounds from GW170817
read the original abstract
General metric theories of gravity in four-dimensional spacetimes can contain at most six polarization modes (two spin-0, two spin-1 and two spin-2) of gravitational waves (GWs). It has been recently shown that, with using four GW non-coaligned detectors, a direct test of the spin-1 modes can be done in principle separately from the spin-0 and spin-2 modes for a GW source in particular sky positions [Hagihara et al., Phys. Rev. D 98, 064035 (2018)]. They have found particular sky positions that satisfy a condition of killing completely the spin-0 modes in a so-called null stream which is a linear combination of the signal outputs to kill the spin-2 modes. The present paper expands the method to discuss a possibility that the spin-0 modes are not completely but effectively suppressed in the null streams to test the spin-1 modes separately from the other modes, especially with an expected network of Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA. We study also a possibility that the spin-1 modes are substantially suppressed in the null streams to test the spin-0 modes separately from the other modes, though the spin-1 modes for any sky position cannot be completely killed in the null streams. Moreover, we find that the coefficient of the spin-0 modes in the null stream is significantly small for the GW170817 event, so that an upper bound can be placed on the amplitude of the spin-1 modes as $< 6 \times 10^{-23}$.

Hawking area law in quantum gravity
Exact Hawking area law from black hole mergers restricts quantum gravity to singular Ricci-flat or specific regular black holes in Stelle and nonlocal theories, derives the standard entropy-area law, and realizes Barr...

Hawking area law in quantum gravity
If Hawking's area law is taken as exact, nonlocal and Stelle quantum-gravity theories are forced to drop R^2 and (Riemann)^2 terms (or use singular Ricci-flat black holes), and the standard entropy-area law follows as...

Linearly Polarized Gravitational Waves from Bubble Collisions
A two-bubble-completed phase transition would emit linearly polarized gravitational waves, but the paper's per-Hubble-volume counting makes the detectable stochastic background unpolarized.

Tests of General Relativity with GWTC-3
No evidence for physics beyond general relativity is found in the analysis of 15 GW events from GWTC-3, with consistency in residuals, PN parameters, and remnant properties.
