论文摘要
我们根据GW150914的数据对Hawking的黑洞区域定理进行了观察性确认,当我们对预测的概率为97%(95%)的概率时,我们对四型四极管模式的(不包括(排除)泛音进行建模时,概率为97%(95%)。我们通过对前和后数据的新时间域分析获得此结果。我们还确认,信号的灵感和响声部分与相同的残留质量和旋转一致,这与一般相对论一致。
We present observational confirmation of Hawking's black-hole area theorem based on data from GW150914, finding agreement with the prediction with 97% (95%) probability when we model the ringdown including (excluding) overtones of the quadrupolar mode. We obtain this result from a new time-domain analysis of the pre- and postmerger data. We also confirm that the inspiral and ringdown portions of the signal are consistent with the same remnant mass and spin, in agreement with general relativity.
