  • Gravitational wave source clustering in the luminosity distance space with the presence of peculiar velocity and lensing errors

    分类: 天文学 >> 天文学 提交时间: 2023-02-19

    摘要: GW number count can be used as a novel tracer of the large scale structure (LSS) in the luminosity distance space (LDS), just like galaxies in the redshift space. It is possible to obtain the $D_L-D_A$ duality relation with clustering effect. However, several LSS induced errors will contaminate the GW luminosity distance measurement, such as the peculiar velocity dispersion error of the host galaxy as well as the foreground lensing magnification. The distance uncertainties induced from these effects will degrade the GW clustering from a spectroscopic-like data down to a photometric-like data. In this paper, we investigate how these LSS induced distance errors modify our cosmological parameter precision inferred from the LDS clustering. We consider two of the next generation GW observatories, namely the Big Bang Observatory (BBO) and the Einstein Telescope (ET). We forecast the parameter estimation errors on the angular diameter distance $D_A$, luminosity distance space Hubble parameter $H_L$ and structure growth rate $f_L\sigma_8$ with a Fisher matrix method. Generally speaking, the GW source clustering data can be used for cosmological studies below $D_L<5$ Gpc, while above this scale the lensing errors will increase significantly. We find that for BBO, it is possible to constrain the cosmological parameters with a relative error of $10^{-3}$ to $10^{-2}$ below $D_L<5$ Gpc. The velocity dispersion error is dominant in the low luminosity distance range, while the lensing magnification error is the bottleneck in the large luminosity distance range. To reduce the lensing error, we assumed a $50\%$ delensing efficiency. Even with this optimal assumption, the fractional error increased to $O(1)$ at luminosity distance $D_L=25$ Gpc. The results for ET are similar as those from BBO. Due to the GW source number in ET is less than that from BBO, the corresponding results also get a bit worse.

  • Hubble parameter estimation via dark sirens with the LISA-Taiji network

    摘要: The Hubble parameter is one of the central parameters in modern cosmology, which describes the present expansion rate of the universe. Their values inferred from the late-time observations are systematically higher than those from the early-time measurements by about $10\%$. To come to a robust conclusion, independent probes with accuracy at percent levels are crucial. Gravitational waves from compact binary coalescence events can be formulated into the standard siren approach to provide an independent Hubble parameter measurement. The future space-borne gravitational wave observatory network, such as the LISA-Taiji network, will be able to measure the gravitational wave signals in the Millihertz bands with unprecedented accuracy. By including several statistical and instrumental noises, we show that within 5 years operation time, the LISA-Taiji network is able to constrain the Hubble parameter within $1\%$ accuracy, and possibly beats the scatters down to $0.5\%$ or even better.

  • Efficient reference-less transmission matrix retrieval for a multimode fiber using fast Fourier transform

    摘要: Transmission matrix (TM) linearly maps the incident and transmitted complex fields, and has been used widely due to its ability to characterize scattering media. It is computationally demanding to reconstruct the TM from intensity images measured by a reference-less experimental setup. Removing reference beam for interference gains the advantage of simple experimental setup. However, the long computational time still limits its practical application. We propose an efficient reference-less TM retrieval method for multimode fiber (MMF). Our method adopts a data acquisition scheme which employs Fourier transform matrix in the design of the incident fields. We develop a nonlinear optimization algorithm to solve the TM retrieval problem in a parallel manner. The data acquisition scheme allows the algorithm to be implemented with fast Fourier transform (FFT), and hence achieves great efficiency improvement. Further, our method acquires intensity images at a defocus plane and correct the error of relative phase offset of TM recovered from the intensity images measured at one fixed plane. We validate the proposed TM retrieval method with both simulations and experiments. By using FFT, our TM retrieval algorithm achieves 1200x speed-up in computational time, and recovers $2286 \times 8192$ TM of a 0.22 NA and $50 \ \mu m$ diameter MMF with 124.9 seconds by a computer of 32 CPU cores. With the advantages of efficiency and the correction of phase offset, our method paves the way for the application of reference-less TM retrieval in real practice.

  • Buildup dynamics of broadband Q-switched noise-like pulse

    摘要: We investigate the buildup dynamics of broadband Q-switched noise-like pulse (QS-NLP) driven by slow gain dynamics in a microfiber-based passively mode-locked fiber laser. Based on shot-to-shot tracing of the transient optical spectra and qualitatively reproduced numerial simulation, we demonstrate that slow gain dynamics is deeply involved in the onset of such complex temporal and spectral instabilities of QS-NLP. The proposed gain dynamics model could contribute to deeper insight into such nonlinear phenomenon and transient dynamics simulation in ultrafast fiber laser.

  • Scalable universal tunable virtual-wavevector spatial frequency shift (TVSFS) super-resolution imaging

    分类: 光学 >> 量子光学 提交时间: 2023-02-19

    摘要: Developing a chip-based super-resolution imaging technique with large field-of-view (FOV), deep subwavelength resolution, and compatibility for both fluorescent and non-fluorescent samples is desired for material science, biomedicine, and life researches, etc. Previous on-chip super-resolution methods focus on either fluorescent or non-fluorescent imaging, putting an urgent requirement on the general imaging technique compatible with both of them. Here, we introduce a universal super-resolution imaging method based on tunable virtual-wavevector spatial frequency shift (TVSFS), realizing both labeled and label-free super-resolution imaging on a single delicately fabricated scalable photonic chip. Theoretically, with TVSFS, the diffraction limit of a linear optical system can be overcome, and the resolution can be improved more than three times, which is the limitation for most super-resolution imaging based on spatial frequency engineering. Diffractive units were fabricated on the chip's surface to provide a wavevector-variable evanescent wave illumination and induce tunable deep SFS in the samples' Fourier space. A resolution of {\lambda}/4.7 for the label-free sample and {\lambda}/7.1 for the labeled sample with a large FOV could be achieved with a CMOS-compatible process on a GaP chip. The large FOV, high-compatibility, and high-integration TVSFS chip may advance the fields like cell engineering, precision inspection in the industry, chemical research, etc.

    摘要: Soliton molecules have been a striking research area, which is significant for the exploration of physical mechanism in various nonlinear systems, the analog to the molecule of matter, and the potential applications in multilevel encoding of optical communications. Here, we demonstrate a novel dichromatic soliton-molecular compound (SMC) that is a hybrid bound states of multiple pulses with two different frequencies connected by two different binding mechanisms. It exhibits unique temporal and spectral profiles that can be described as the bounded temporal and dichromatic soliton molecules. The vibrating SMCs are generated experimentally and numerically to demonstrate the intrinsic solution in the dissipative nonlinear system, which is characterized with the vibration both in time and frequency dimensions and dual-peak evolution trajectory induced by the time-frequency coupling. These results enrich the concept of soliton molecules and further promote the analogy to matter molecules.
