Waveform stability of black hole ringdown with stochastic horizon structure
Han-Wen Hu, Cheng-Jun Fang, Zong-Kuan Guo
We examine the robustness of black hole ringdown to stochastic horizon-scale structure within an effective field framework in a proof-of-principle Schwarzschild setup.Consistent wi…
Parametric resonance amplification of gravitational waves in dynamical Chern-Simons gravity
Han-Wen Hu, Chen Lan, Zong-Kuan Guo
Within the effective field theory of dynamical Chern-Simons (dCS) gravity, we study parametric resonance amplification of gravitational waves driven by an oscillating environmental…
Low-finesse scattering and non-stationary dispersive dynamics of gravitational wave echoes
Han-Wen Hu, Cheng-Jun Fang, Zong-Kuan Guo
We study environmental echoes induced by a weak potential barrier outside a Schwarzschild black hole. In the low-finesse limit, the time domain response is governed by a sequence o…
One-loop corrections to infrared GWs is forbidden by symmetries
Cheng-Jun Fang, Han-Wen Hu, Zong-Kuan Guo
Small-scale scalar perturbations amplified during inflation can induce primordial gravitational waves through tensor-scalar interactions. A long-standing controversial issue is whe…
Bispectrum of induced gravitational waves in the poltergeist mechanism
Han-Wen Hu, Cheng-Jun Fang, Zhen-Min Zeng +1
In the poltergeist mechanism the enhancement of induced gravitational waves (GWs) occurs due to a sudden transition from an early matter-dominated era to the radiation-dominated er…
Spectrum of third-order tensor perturbations induced by excited scalar fields
Cheng-Jun Fang, Zhi-Zhang Peng, Han-Wen Hu +1
We calculate for the first time the third-order spectrum of gravitational waves sourced by the amplified scalar field perturbations during inflation using the in-in formalism, and…
