NANOGrav signal and LIGO-Virgo Primordial Black Holes from the Higgs field
Published 5 May 2021 in gr-qc | (2105.01943v2)
Abstract: We show that the NANOGrav signal can come from the Higgs field with a noncanonical kinetic term in terms of the scalar induced gravitational waves. The scalar induced gravitational waves generated in our model are also detectable by space-based gravitational wave observatories. Primordial black holes with stellar masses that can explain LIGO-Virgo events are also produced. Therefore, the NANOGrav signal and the BHs in LIGO-Virgo events may both originate from the Higgs field.
