Abstract

There exist corresponding metric perturbations of the relic gravitational waves (GWs) in the region of approximately h~10^(-30)-10^(-32)in the GHz band. A detector for these GWs is described in which we measure the perturbative photon flux (PPF) or signal generated by such high-frequency relic GWs (HFRGWs) via a coupling system of fractal membranes and a Gaussian beam (GB) passing through a static magnetic field. It is found that under the synchro-resonance condition in which the frequency of the GB is set equal to the frequency of the expected HFRGWs (h~2.00*10^(-31), v_g=10^10Hz in the quintessential inflationary models (QIM) and h~6.32*10^(-31), v_g=10^10Hz in the pre-big bang scenario (PBBS) may produce the PPFs of ~4.04*10^2/s and ~1.27*10^3/s in a surface of 100cm^2 area at the waist of the GB, respectively. The relatively weak first-order PPF, directed at right angles to the expected HFRGWs, is reflected by fractal membrane and the resulting reflected PPF (signal) exhibits a very small decay in transit to the detector (tunable microwave receiver) compared with the much stronger background photon flux, which allows for detection of the reflected PPF with signal to background noise ratios greater than one at the distance of the detector. We also discuss the selection capability of system and directional sensitivity for the resonance components from the stochastic relic GW background. The resolution of tiny difference between the PPFs generated by the relic GWs in the QIM and in the PBBS may be established and will be of cosmological significance. PACS numbers: 04.30.Nk, 04.30.Db, and 98.80.Cq.

An upper bound on the minimum orbital period of black holes

Previous research has focused on establishing lower bounds on the minimum orbital period of black holes. In this work, we explore the complementary question of whether an upper bound exists for the minimum orbital period of black holes. We investigate the minimum orbital periods of three types of black holes: Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordström and Kerr-Newman black holes. We find that the minimum orbital period of these black holes is bounded by an upper limit $T_{min} \leqslant 6\sqrt{3}πM$, where $M$ is the black hole mass. Our results suggest that this upper bound on the minimum orbital period may be a general property in black hole spacetimes.

Bounds on the minimum orbital period in the background of 5-dimensional charged black holes

In this paper, we study the upper and lower bounds on the minimum orbital period of 5-dimensional charged black holes. Our results indicate that the upper bound of the minimum orbital period corresponds to non-charged black holes, while the lower bound is achieved in the case of maximally charged black holes. We further establish precise analytical expressions for the upper and lower bounds of the minimum orbital period. Our findings provide valuable insights into 5-dimensional charged black holes and help constrain theoretical gravity models.

Analysis of minimum orbital periods around d-dimensional charged black holes

This paper investigates the bounds on the minimum orbital period for test objects around d-dimensional charged black holes in asymptotically flat spacetimes. We derive the exact critical radius and the minimum orbital period. We then prove analytically that the minimum orbital period decreases strictly as the charge of the black hole increases. Thus, the upper limit is reached for an uncharged black hole, while the lower limit is attained for a maximally charged one, and the two bounds take the closed form $\frac{2π(d-2)}{d-3}[(d-2)M]^{\frac{1}{d-3}}\leqslant T_{min} \leqslant 2π\sqrt{\frac{d-1}{d-3}}\,[(d-1)M]^{\frac{1}{d-3}}$. Since the minimum period equals $2π$ times the shadow radius, the upper bound is equivalently a universal upper bound on the shadow radius. These results improve our understanding of dynamics around d-dimensional black holes and impose constraints on candidate gravity theories.
