The Taiji-TianQin-LISA network: Precisely measuring the Hubble constant using both bright and dark sirens

In the coming decades, the space-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors such as Taiji, TianQin, and LISA are expected to form a network capable of detecting millihertz GWs emitted by the mergers of massive black hole binaries (MBHBs). In this work, we investigate the potential of GW standard sirens from the Taiji-TianQin-LISA network in constraining cosmological parameters. For the optimistic scenario in which electromagnetic (EM) counterparts can be detected, we predict the number of detectable bright sirens based on three different MBHB population models, i.e., pop III, Q3d, and Q3nod. Our results show that the Taiji-TianQin-LISA network alone could achieve a constraint precision of $0.9\%$ for the Hubble constant, meeting the standard of precision cosmology. Moreover, the Taiji-TianQin-LISA network could effectively break the cosmological parameter degeneracies generated by the CMB data, particularly in the dynamical dark energy models. When combined with the CMB data, the joint CMB+Taiji-TianQin-LISA data offer $σ(w)=0.036$ in the $w$CDM model, which is close to the latest constraint result obtained from the CMB+SN data. We also consider a conservative scenario in which EM counterparts are not available. Due to the precise sky localizations of MBHBs by the Taiji-TianQin-LISA network, the constraint precision of the Hubble constant is expected to reach $1.2\%$. In conclusion, the GW standard sirens from the Taiji-TianQin-LISA network will play a critical role in helping solve the Hubble tension and shedding light on the nature of dark energy.

Prospects for measuring the Hubble constant and dark energy using gravitational-wave dark sirens with neutron star tidal deformation

Using the measurements of tidal deformation in the binary neutron star (BNS) coalescences can obtain the information of redshifts of gravitational wave (GW) sources, and thus actually the cosmic expansion history can be investigated using solely such GW dark sirens. To do this, the key is to get a large number of accurate GW data, which can be achieved with the third-generation (3G) GW detectors. Here we wish to offer an answer to the question of whether the Hubble constant and the equation of state (EoS) of dark energy can be precisely measured using solely GW dark sirens. We find that in the era of 3G GW detectors ${\cal O}(10^5-10^6)$ dark siren data (with the NS tidal measurements) could be obtained in three-year observation if the EoS of NS is perfectly known, and thus using only dark sirens can actually achieve the precision cosmology. Based on a network of 3G detectors, we obtain the constraint precisions of $0.15\%$ and $0.95\%$ for the Hubble constant $H_0$ and the constant EoS of dark energy $w$, respectively; for a two-parameter EoS parametrization of dark energy, the precision of $w_0$ is $2.04\%$ and the error of $w_a$ is 0.13. We conclude that 3G GW detectors would lead to breakthroughs in solving the Hubble tension and revealing the nature of dark energy provided that the EoS of NS is perfectly known.

A path to precision cosmology: synergy between four promising late-universe cosmological probes

In the next decades, it is necessary to forge new late-universe cosmological probes to precisely constrain the Hubble constant and the equation of state of dark energy simultaneously. In this work, we show that the four typical late-universe cosmological probes, the 21 cm intensity mapping (IM), fast radio burst (FRB), gravitational wave (GW) standard siren, and strong gravitational lensing (SGL), are expected to be forged into useful tools in solving the Hubble tension and exploring dark energy. We propose that the synergy of them is rather important in cosmology. We simulate the 21 cm IM, FRB, GW, and SGL data based on the hypothetical observations of the Hydrogen Intensity and Real-time Analysis eXperiment (HIRAX), the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), the Einstein Telescope (ET), and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), respectively. We find that the four probes show obviously different parameter degeneracy orientations in cosmological constraints, so any combination of them can break the parameter degeneracies and thus significantly improve the constraint precision. The joint 21 cm IM+FRB+GW+SGL data can provide the constraint errors of $σ(Ω_{\rm m})=0.0022$ and $σ(H_0)=0.16\ \rm km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}$ in the $Λ$CDM model, which meet the standard of precision cosmology, i.e., the constraint precision of parameters is better than 1%. In addition, the joint data give $σ(w)=0.020$ in the $w$CDM model, and $σ(w_0)=0.066$ and $σ(w_a)=0.25$ in the $w_0w_a$CDM model, which are all better than the constraints obtained by the CMB+BAO+SN data. We show that the synergy between the four late-universe cosmological probes has magnificent prospects.

Joint constraints on cosmological parameters using future multi-band gravitational wave standard siren observations

Gravitational waves (GWs) from the compact binary coalescences can be used as standard sirens to explore the cosmic expansion history. In the next decades, it is anticipated that we could obtain the multi-band GW standard siren data (from nanohertz to a few hundred hertz), which are expected to play an important role in cosmological parameter estimation. In this work, we give for the first time the joint constraints on cosmological parameters using the future multi-band GW standard siren observations. We simulate the multi-band GW standard sirens based on the SKA-era pulsar timing array (PTA), the Taiji observatory, and the Cosmic Explorer (CE) to perform cosmological analysis. In the $Λ$CDM model, we find that the joint PTA+Taiji+CE data could provide a tight constraint on the Hubble constant with a $0.5\%$ precision. Moreover, PTA+Taiji+CE could break the cosmological parameter degeneracies generated by CMB, especially in the dynamical dark energy models. When combining the PTA+Taiji+CE data with the CMB data, the constraint precisions of $Ω_{\rm m}$ and $H_0$ are $1.0\%$ and $0.3\%$, meeting the standard of precision cosmology. The joint CMB+PTA+Taiji+CE data give $σ(w)=0.028$ in the $w$CDM model and $σ(w_0)=0.11$ and $σ(w_a)=0.32$ in the $w_0w_a$CDM model, which are comparable with or close to the latest constraint results by CMB+BAO+SN. In conclusion, it is worth expecting to use the future multi-band GW observations to explore the nature of dark energy and measure the Hubble constant.

Impacts of gravitational-wave standard siren observations from Einstein Telescope and Cosmic Explorer on weighing neutrinos in interacting dark energy models

The multi-messenger gravitational-wave (GW) observation for binary neutron star merger events could provide a rather useful tool to explore the evolution of the universe. In particular, for the third-generation GW detectors, i.e., the Einstein Telescope (ET) and the Cosmic Explorer (CE), proposed to be built in Europe and the U.S., respectively, lots of GW standard sirens with known redshifts could be obtained, which would exert great impacts on the cosmological parameter estimation. The total neutrino mass could be measured by cosmological observations, but such a measurement is model-dependent and currently only gives an upper limit. In this work, we wish to investigate whether the GW standard sirens observed by ET and CE could help improve the constraint on the neutrino mass, in particular in the interacting dark energy (IDE) models. We find that the GW standard siren observations from ET and CE can only slightly improve the constraint on the neutrino mass in the IDE models, compared to the current limit. The improvements in the IDE models are weaker than in the standard cosmological model. Although the limit on neutrino mass can only be slightly updated, the constraints on other cosmological parameters can be significantly improved by using the GW observations.

Using a multi-messenger and multi-wavelength observational strategy to probe the nature of dark energy through direct measurements of cosmic expansion history

In the near future, the redshift drift observations in optical and radio bands will provide precise measurements on $H(z)$ covering the redshift ranges of $2<z<5$ and $0<z<0.3$. In addition, gravitational wave (GW) standard siren observations could make measurements on the dipole anisotropy of luminosity distance, which will also provide the $H(z)$ measurements in the redshift range of $0<z<3$. In this work, we propose a multi-messenger and multi-wavelength observational strategy to measure $H(z)$ based on the three next-generation projects, E-ELT, SKA, and DECIGO, and we wish to see whether the future $H(z)$ measurements could provide tight constraints on dark-energy parameters. The dark energy models we consider include $Λ$CDM, $w$CDM, CPL, HDE, and I$Λ$CDM models. It is found that E-ELT, SKA1, and DECIGO are highly complementary in constraining dark energy models. Although any one of these three data sets can only give rather weak constraints on each model we consider, the combination of them could significantly break the parameter degeneracies and give much tighter constraints on almost all the cosmological parameters. Moreover, we find that the combination of E-ELT, SKA1, DECIGO, and CMB could further improve the constraints on dark energy parameters, e.g., $σ(w_0)=0.024$ and $σ(w_a)=0.17$ in the CPL model, which means that these three promising probes will play a key role in helping reveal the nature of dark energy.

How can gravitational-wave standard sirens and 21 cm intensity mapping jointly provide a precise late-universe cosmological probe?

In the next decades, the gravitational-wave (GW) standard siren observations and the neutral hydrogen 21-cm intensity mapping (IM) surveys, as two promising cosmological probes, will play an important role in precisely measuring cosmological parameters. In this work, we make a forecast for cosmological parameter estimation with the synergy between the GW standard siren observations and the 21-cm IM surveys. We choose the Einstein Telescope (ET) and the Taiji observatory as the representatives of the GW detection projects and choose the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) phase I mid-frequency array as the representative of the 21-cm IM experiments. In the simulation of the 21-cm IM data, we assume perfect foreground removal and calibration. We find that the synergy of the GW standard siren observations and the 21-cm IM survey could break the cosmological parameter degeneracies. The joint ET+Taiji+SKA data give $σ(H_0)=0.28\ {\rm km\ s^{-1}\ Mpc^{-1}}$ in the $Λ$CDM model, $σ(w)=0.028$ in the $w$CDM model, which are better than the results of $Planck$+BAO+SNe, and $σ(w_0)=0.077$ and $σ(w_a)=0.295$ in the CPL model, which are comparable with the results of $Planck$+BAO+SNe. In the $Λ$CDM model, the constraint precision of $H_0$ and $Ω_{\rm m}$ is less than or rather close to 1%, indicating that the magnificent prospects for precision cosmology with these two promising cosmological probes are worth expecting.

Forecast for cosmological parameter estimation with gravitational-wave standard sirens from the LISA-Taiji network

LISA and Taiji are expected to form a space-based gravitational-wave (GW) detection network in the future. In this work, we make a forecast for the cosmological parameter estimation with the standard siren observation from the LISA-Taiji network. We simulate the standard siren data based on a scenario with configuration angle of $40^{\circ}$ between LISA and Taiji. Three models for the population of massive black hole binary (MBHB), i.e., pop III, Q3d, and Q3nod, are considered to predict the events of MBHB mergers. We find that, based on the LISA-Taiji network, the number of electromagnetic (EM) counterparts detected is almost doubled compared with the case of single Taiji mission. Therefore, the LISA-Taiji network's standard siren observation could provide much tighter constraints on cosmological parameters. For example, solely using the standard sirens from the LISA-Taiji network, the constraint precision of $H_0$ could reach $1.3\%$. Moreover, combined with the CMB data, the GW-EM observation based on the LISA-Taiji network could also tightly constrain the equation of state of dark energy, e.g., the constraint precision of $w$ reaches about $4\%$, which is comparable with the result of CMB+BAO+SN. It is concluded that the GW standard sirens from the LISA-Taiji network will become a useful cosmological probe in understanding the nature of dark energy in the future.

Forecast for cosmological parameter estimation with gravitational-wave standard siren observation from the Cosmic Explorer

The third-generation ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detector, Cosmic Explorer (CE), is scheduled to start its observation in the 2030s. In this paper, we make a forecast for cosmological parameter estimation with gravitational-wave standard siren observation from the CE. We use the simulated GW standard siren data of CE to constrain the $Λ$CDM, $w$CDM and CPL models. We combine the simulated GW data with the current cosmological electromagnetic observations including the latest cosmic microwave background anisotropies data from Planck, the optical baryon acoustic oscillation measurements, and the type Ia supernovae observation (Pantheon compilation) to do the analysis. We find that the future standard siren observation from CE will improve the cosmological parameter estimation to a great extent, since the future GW standard siren data can well break the degeneracies generated by the optical observations between various cosmological parameters. We also find that the CE's constraining capability on the cosmological parameters is slightly better than that of the same-type GW detector, the Einstein Telescope. In addition, the synergy between the GW standard siren observation from CE and the 21 cm emission observation from SKA is also discussed.

Cosmological parameter estimation with future gravitational wave standard siren observation from the Einstein Telescope

In this work, we use the simulated gravitational wave (GW) standard siren data from the future observation of the Einstein Telescope (ET) to constrain various dark energy cosmological models, including the $Λ$CDM, $w$CDM, CPL, $α$DE, GCG, and NGCG models. We also use the current mainstream cosmological electromagnetic observations, i.e., the cosmic microwave background anisotropies data, the baryon acoustic oscillations data, and the type Ia supernovae data, to constrain these models. We find that the GW standard siren data could tremendously improve the constraints on the cosmological parameters for all these dark energy models. For all the cases, the GW standard siren data can be used to break the parameter degeneracies generated by the current cosmological electromagnetic observational data. Therefore, it is expected that the future GW standard siren observation from the ET would play a crucial role in the cosmological parameter estimation in the future. The conclusion of this work is quite solid because it is based on the analysis for various dark energy models.
