4 Very interesting era of GR Advanced LIGO Advanced VIRGO KAGRA One of the interesting possibilities is to find new physics beyond GR!
5 Can we find a signal of string theory? Arvanitaki, Dimopoulos, Dubvosky, Kaloper, March!Russel, PRD81 "2010#, Maybe Yes, if there are String Axions with very tiny mass In string theory, many moduli appear when the extra dimensions get compactified. Some of them "10!100# are expected to behave like scalar fields with very tiny mass, which are called string axions.

20 Constraining string axion models from GW observation
21 LIGO s science runs "1# PRD69, "2004#; ; arxiv: $gr!qc% They looked for continuous waves from distorted pulsars Detectable amplitude can be made smaller by increasing observation time h rss h T obs
22 LIGO s continuous wave search No GWs have been detected, upper limit on the amplitude is given.
23 Our idea "1# Consider continuous waves from BH!axion system 50 Hz f 1200 Hz ev µ ev If we assume M 15M, Mµ 0.3 We consider axion cloud in the l = m = 1 mode We use the approximate formula for small Mµ The wave form is same as the distorted pulsar case ( Ea ) ) Amplitude: h 0 M (µm) 6 ( M d
24 Our idea "2# We adopt the axion cloud energy when the nonlinear self! interaction becomes important Φ max f a 1 Ea 8πe 2 M ( fa M p ) 1 (µm) ( f a GeV ) 2 ( M 15M ) 3 ( µ ev ) ( ) 2 1 d <h UL 1kpc In order to exclude the situation where gravitational backreaction is significant, we require E a M < 0.05 f a GeV < 0.1 ( M 15M ) 2 ( µ ) ev
25 Let us consider Cygnus X!1 Cygnus X"1 M 15M! 17 a > 0.9 Log10! fa #GeV$" d 1.86 kpc!?" 16 Excluded LIGO 15 aligo 14 Allowed 13 0 McClintock, et al., arxiv: !3690&astro!ph' 5.! 10"13 Μ #ev$ 1.! 10"12 1.5! 10"12 2.! 10"12
26 Remark The result of the continuous wave search cannot be used in our case because In the data analysis, isolated pulsar is assumed. Cygnus X!1 is a binary system, and therefore, GW frequency fluctuates by the Doppler shift The data analysis strongly depend on the assumed situation If the target search of continuous waves from the Cygnus X!1 is carried out, that kind of constraint can be obtained.
27 Dependence on the distance M BH 15M Some estimates give the BH number in our galaxy as Timms, Woosley, Weaver, ApJ457, 834 "1996# ? Excluded The averaged distance in the neighbouring BHs is expected to be 7 15 pc Log 10 fa GeV d 1500 pc 150 pc 15 pc Allowed There might exist invisible isolated BH at relatively close position Μ ev
28 Summary
29 Summary It is possible to constrain string axion models from existing LIGO observational data. Target search from continuous GWs from Cygnus X!1 is required to obtain rigorous constraint. Invisible isolated solar mass BHs are likely to exist relatively close to us, and this suggests that string axions may be constrained more strongly.
