Gravitational Wave Implications for the Parity Symmetry of Gravity in the High Energy Region

Abstract: Einstein's general relativity, as the most successful theory of gravity, is one of the cornerstones of modern physics. However, the experimental tests for gravity in the high energy region are limited. The emerging gravitational-wave astronomy has opened an avenue for probing the fundamental properties of gravity in a strong and dynamical field, and in particular, a high energy regime. In this work, we test the parity conservation of gravity with gravitational waves. If the parity symmetry is broken, the left-… Show more

“…In this paper we will consider the velocity birefringence effects only. With the GW events detected by LIGO and Virgo, the GW constraints on the parity-violating birefringence for β µ = 1 [60,61] and β µ = −1 [62] have been obtained by comparing the modified waveforms with GW data. With these constraints, one is able to infer the gravitational wave constraints on the corresponding parity-violating gravities.…”

“…δ 2 term) in (3.10) from GWTC-1 and GWTC-2 has been derived in [11,12]. For parity violating effects, labeled by µ A , the observational constraint on the effect of the first term in (3.12) has been considered in [58,60,61]. In this paper, we will not consider δ 1 and δ 2 terms, and concentrate on the effects of δ 3 and δ 4 on GWs and their constriants from GW data.…”

“…Recent work has begun to look at the available GW catalog to place constraints on coefficients describing Lorentz violation for gravity [48][49][50]. Additionally, closely related searches for parameterizations of deviations from General Relativity have been completed [3,4,24,51].…”
