・We live at the center of void (less dense region).
Density gradient
~Gpc
・Spherically symmetric, dust, inhomogeneous (LTB model)
・Apparent accelerating expansion of the
Universe!
(The simplest example of the inhomogeneous universe model)
・This model can also explain the peaks of CMB & BAO
Garcia-Bellido & Haugboelle (2008)
・We need observables that can probe the LTB void model more clearly! z-drift
・Time evolution of the redshift z
z-drift reflects the accelerating expansion more directly!

LTB with monotonically
increasing density profile:
⇒ ∆tz < 0 for z>0

・If ΛCDM is correct
⇒ can reject typical void models with 10yr obs.
・Use absorption lines of quasars (Ly α forest)
(only for high z observation)

How accurately can we measure this difference?
§2-3 Numerical Calculations
� circular NS/NS binaries at
z=0~4
� Divide z bin with δz=0.1
� Randomly distributing binaries
at each z bin
(Directions and orientations)
Monte Carlo simulation
� spins
� WD/WD confusion noise
� merger rate evolution based
on star formation galaxy obs.
Event rate: 106/yr
� Motion of Detectors
� Fiducial: ΛCDM

・We can test ∆tz-DL
with GW observations alone!
� Direct detection of the acceleration of the Universewith DECIGO/BBO
⇒ 5-10yr obs. can rule out monotonic LTB void models or even general ones!
Space-borne Detectors ⇒ GW Cosmology!!!
Ground-Based Detectors ⇒ GW Astronomy!

Summary
Can we probe LTB with arbitrary density profile?
General LTB Void model ⇒ at z=0
(Kai, Nakao & Yoo 2010)
Probing ∆tz > 0 at sufficiently low z
⇒ It seems we can rule out any LTB model!
