We show how the motion of cosmic superstrings in extra dimensions can modify the gravitational wave signal from cusps. Additional dimensions both round off cusps, as well as reducing the probability of their formation, and thus give a significant dimension dependent damping of the gravitational waves. We look at the implication of this effect for LIGO and LISA, as well as commenting on more general frequency bands.
我们展示了额外维度中宇宙超弦的运动如何改变引力波信号的尖点。额外维度既能使尖点变圆,又能降低其形成概率,从而对引力波产生显著的依赖于维度的阻尼效应。我们研究了这一效应对 LIGO 和 LISA 的影响,并对更广泛的频段进行了评论。
