Black hole hyperaccretion in collapsars. II. Gravitational waves.

Abstract (from CDS):
As progenitors of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the core collapse of massive stars and the coalescence of compact object binaries are believed to be powerful sources of gravitational waves (GWs). In the collapsar scenario, a rotating stellar-mass black hole (BH) surrounded by a hyperaccretion disk might be active in the center of a massive collapsar, which is one of the plausible central engines of long GRBs. Such a BH hyperaccretion disk would be in a state of a neutrino-dominated accretion flow (NDAF) at the initial stage of the accretion process; meanwhile, the jets attempt to break out from the envelope and circumstellar medium to power GRBs. In addition to collapsars, BH hyperaccretion systems are important sources of neutrinos and GWs. In this paper, we investigate the GW emission generated by the anisotropic neutrino emission from NDAFs in collapsar scenarios. As the results indicate, the typical frequency of GWs is ∼1-100 Hz, and the masses and metallicities of the progenitor stars have slight effects on the GW strains. The GWs from NDAFs might be detected by operational or planned detectors at a distance of 10 kpc. Moreover, comparisons of the detectable GWs from collapsars, NDAFs, and GRB jets (internal shocks) are displayed. By combining the electromagnetic counterparts, neutrinos, and GWs, one may constrain the characteristics of collapsars and central BH accretion systems.
