Prospects for determining the nature of the secondaries of extreme mass-ratio inspirals using the spin-induced quadrupole deformation

Abstract: The famous no-hair theorem dictates that the multipole moments of Kerr black holes depend only on their mass and angular momentum. Thus, the measurement of multipole moments of astrophysical objects through gravitational-wave observations provides a novel way to test the theorem and distinguish black holes from other astrophysical objects. This paper studies the gravitational wave radiation from an extreme mass ratio inspiral system consisting of a supermassive Kerr black hole and a spinning stellar-mass compa… Show more

“…The advantages of this method is that it can be performed at a small computational expense, compared to Fisher Matrix and full parameter estimation. Recent work [52] uses a similar method to investigate if the effects of quadrupolar deformation in highly asymmetric mass ratio inspirals are strong enough to be detected by the space-based GW detector LISA. The authors set the upper limit of waveform difference as 1, as they assume the standard waveform model is the hypothetical "true" waveform.…”
