报告摘要:Strong evidence of the existence of the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) has been reported recently by the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves, the Parkes Pulsar Timing Array, the European Pulsar Timing Array, and the Chinese Pulsar Timing Array Collaborations. The Bayesian posteriors of the SGWB amplitude and spectrum are compatible with astrophysical predictions for the SGWB from a population of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs). We discuss the modifications arising from the extra scalar or vector radiation to the characteristic dimensionless strain of gravitational waves from SMBHBs and explore the possibility of detecting charges carried by supermassive black holes in modified gravity.
