Abstract
We study the graviton-photon conversion in the magnetic fields of the Earth, the Milky Way Galaxy, and intergalactic regions. Requiring that the photon flux converted from gravitons does not exceed the observed photon flux with telescopes, we derive upper limits on the stochastic gravitational waves in frequency ranges from 107Hz to 1035Hz. Remarkably, the upper limits on h2ΩGW could be less than unity in the frequency range of 1018-1023 Hz in a specific case. The detection of gravitational waves using telescopes would open up a new avenue for high frequency gravitational wave observations.
期刊介绍:
Progress of Theoretical and Experimental Physics (PTEP) is an international journal that publishes articles on theoretical and experimental physics. PTEP is a fully open access, online-only journal published by the Physical Society of Japan.
PTEP is the successor to Progress of Theoretical Physics (PTP), which terminated in December 2012 and merged into PTEP in January 2013.
PTP was founded in 1946 by Hideki Yukawa, the first Japanese Nobel Laureate. PTEP, the successor journal to PTP, has a broader scope than that of PTP covering both theoretical and experimental physics.
PTEP mainly covers areas including particles and fields, nuclear physics, astrophysics and cosmology, beam physics and instrumentation, and general and mathematical physics.
