Report of the Topical Group on Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics for for Snowmass 2021

Rana X. Adhikari, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Ke Fang +118

Cosmic Probes of Fundamental Physics take two primary forms: Very high energy particles (cosmic rays, neutrinos, and gamma rays) and gravitational waves. Already today, these probe…

Constraints on quasi-normal-mode frequencies with LIGO-Virgo binary-black-hole observations

Abhirup Ghosh, Richard Brito, Alessandra Buonanno

The no-hair conjecture in General Relativity (GR) states that a Kerr black hole (BH) is completely described by its mass and spin. As a consequence, the complex quasi-normal-mode (…

Modeling and searching for a stochastic gravitational-wave background from ultralight vector bosons

Leo Tsukada, Richard Brito, William E. East +1

Ultralight bosons, which are predicted in a variety of beyond-Standard-Model scenarios as dark-matter candidates, can trigger the superradiant instability around spinning black hol…

Black hole superradiant instability from ultralight spin-2 fields

Richard Brito, Sara Grillo, Paolo Pani

Ultralight bosonic fields are compelling dark-matter candidates and arise in a variety of beyond-Standard-Model scenarios. These fields can tap energy and angular momentum from spi…

Prospects for Fundamental Physics with LISA

Enrico Barausse, Emanuele Berti, Thomas Hertog +318

In this paper, which is of programmatic rather than quantitative nature, we aim to further delineate and sharpen the future potential of the LISA mission in the area of fundamental…

Gravitational-Wave Constraints on an Effective Field-Theory Extension of General Relativity

Noah Sennett, Richard Brito, Alessandra Buonanno +2

Gravitational-wave observations of coalescing binary systems allow for novel tests of the strong-field regime of gravity. Using data from the Gravitational Wave Open Science Center…
