Description

During inflation, quantum fluctuations of spacetime, so-called primordial gravitational waves, are generated. We study its impact on gravitational waves from binary black holes under the assumption that the squeezing of primordial gravitational waves survives until the present. We show the squeezing of the quantum state of gravitational waves tells us the information of inflation.
