Description

The observation of gravitational waves opens a new window for exploring the properties of dark matter. Gravitational wave messengers enable the concurrent measurement of their amplitudes and phases, facilitating a precise analysis of the production and propagation processes. In this talk, I will demonstrate how gravitational waves can be utilized to study the dark matter halo. Specifically, I will use wave dark matter as an example to show that gravitational waveforms, along with further multi-messenger observations involving photon signals, reveal distinctive features to be probed with the ongoing LIGO and upcoming LISA missions.
