Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Stellar Core-Collapse Events

arXiv:2110.01478 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.105.063022

Abstract

We estimate the stochastic gravitational-wave background arising from all stellar core-collapse events in the universe based on the gravitational-wave signal predictions of recent numerical simulations. We focus on waveforms from slowly or non-rotating stars and include rapidly rotating, highly massive progenitors as extreme case limits. Our most realistic estimates are more than one hundred times below the sensitivity of third-generation terrestrial gravitational-wave detectors and likely weaker than cosmological contributions to the stochastic gravitational-wave background.
