Limits on the stochastic gravitational wave background and prospects for single-source detection with GRACE Follow-On

With a reinterpretation of recent results, the GRACE Follow-On mission can be applied to gravitational wave astronomy. Existing GRACE Follow-On data constrain the stochastic gravitational wave background to ΩGW < 3.3 × 107 at 100 mHz. With a dedicated analysis, GRACE Follow-On may be able to dete...

Zusammenfassung:With a reinterpretation of recent results, the GRACE Follow-On mission can be applied to gravitational wave astronomy. Existing GRACE Follow-On data constrain the stochastic gravitational wave background to ΩGW < 3.3 × 107 at 100 mHz. With a dedicated analysis, GRACE Follow-On may be able to detect the inspiral of local neutron star binaries, inspiral of subgalactic stellar-mass black hole binaries, or mergers of intermediate-mass black hole binaries within the Milky Way.
