Dipole Anisotropy in Gravitational Wave Source Distribution [CEA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2204.07472


Our local motion with respect to the cosmic frame of rest is believed to be dominantly responsible for the observed dipole anisotropy in the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR). We study the effect of this motion on the sky distribution of gravitational wave (GW) sources. We determine the resulting dipole anisotropy in GW source number counts, mass weighted number counts, which we refer to as mass intensity, and mean mass per source. The mass M dependence of the number density n(M) distribution of BBH is taken directly from data. We also test the anisotropy in the observable mean mass per source along the direction of the CMB dipole
