Testing the Kerr nature with binary black hole inspirals (2407.13798v1)
Published 17 Jul 2024 in gr-qc and astro-ph.HE
Abstract: The theory of general relativity (GR) is the standard framework for the description of gravitation and the geometric structure of spacetime. With the recent advancement of observational instruments, it has become possible to probe the strong field regime to test GR. We present the constraints obtained from the binary black hole inspiral data of the LIGO-Virgo-Kagra (LVK) gravitational wave (GW) observations on the deformations of some popular parametrized non-Kerr metrics.
