The LISA Mission was adopted by ESA in January, as the next L-class mission, with a launch date in 2035. LISA will detect GWs in the milliHertz regime, where we observe the coalescence of supermassive galaxies up to very high redshift as well as thousands of compact binaries in the Milky Way and many other sources.  The LISA mission is an international collaboration between ESA, its member states, and NASA. It will consist of three identical spacecraft forming a near equilateral triangle that exchange laser beams over the 2.5 × 106 km long arms. LISA will use precision laser interferometry to compare separations between test masses that are protected by the spacecraft from non-gravitational disturbances. LISA will coherently measure spacetime strain variations as a function of time, including frequency, phase, and polarisation, forming a continuous, all-sky observatory sensitive to all sources simultaneously.
 

LISA’s science objectives cover a wide range of outstanding questions in astrophysics, fundamental physics and cosmology. LISA is unique in that it will be sensitive to Massive Black Hole mergers across the Universe, directly probing the origin of Massive Black Holes and their growth and important role in galaxy evolution. Some of these sources will have signal-to-noise ratios as large as 1000, providing exquisite tests of General Relativity and the nature of event horizons. Multi-messenger observations will provide additional information about matter surrounding the mergers and a test of the propagation of gravitational waves. Stellar mass compact objects surrounding Massive Black Holes give rise to extreme mass-ratio inspiral signals, unique for LISA, that probe the stellar population in the central regions of galaxies and measure the mass and spin of the Massive Black Hole. They are also outstanding sources to map the detailed structure of the spacetime metric of the central Massive Black Hole, allowing tests of the no-hair theorem, the existence of additional fields and other alternative Gravity theories. LISA is guaranteed to detect a large number of Galactic sources, consisting of binary and multiple compact objects, which will give detailed insight into the final stages of stellar binary evolution, into the physics of tides and mass transfer, and can be used as independent probes of Galactic structure. Stellar-mass Black Hole binaries can be detected in the nearby Universe and can evolve from the LISA measurement band into that of the ground-based detectors, potentially yielding multi-band gravitational wave sources. Because gravitational waves provide a direct distance measurement of the source, LISA will determine the expansion of the Universe in a complementary way to Euclid and other cosmological probes. Finally, there are several potential stochastic signals from collective phenomena in the Early Universe, such as first-order phase transitions, that, if detected, would provide the unique direct measurement of the first seconds after the Big Bang.

France is a major contributor to LISA, including the responsibility for the coordination of the data analysis, though the Distributed Data Processing Center (DDPC). The Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur is responsible for the pipelines creating the final data products (e.g. catalogs).  For any question, contact Astrid Lamberts (co-PI LISA-Frace, Coordinator of the DDPC catalog production).

HDUST (A. Carciofi) : Code de transfert radiatif Monte Carlo incluant gaz et poussière. Ce code permet d’obtenir des spectres et des cartes d’intensité en lumière naturelle et/ou polarisée. Ce code a besoin d’une puissance de calcul considérable pour que l’on puisse exploiter pleinement ces capacités. La version parallèle du code HDUST a donc été installée sur le Mésocentre SIGAMM (Simulations Intensives en Géophysique, Astronomie, Mécanique et Mathématiques) pour utilisation par les chercheurs de l’équipe Stellaire. L’accès à ce code très complet a été possible grâce au programme de collaboration internationale PICS France-Brésil.

Création d’une grille de modèles de disques de gaz et poussière autour des étoiles massives. Exemple d’images (cartes d’intensités) calculés en utilisant le mésocentre par A. Domiciano de Souza & A. Carciofi.

 images disques HDUST 2fcff

Ces images montrent une étoile chaude centrale (température 20000 K; type spectrale B) entourée d’un disque composé de gaz (hydrogène) et de poussière (composition de silicates avec une distribution de tailles entre 1 a 50 microns). Ce modèle physique d’étoile B[e] a été calculé par un code de transfert radiatif par méthode Monte Carlo (code HDUST). Plusieurs paramètres physiques contrôlent la structure physique du disque. Les images montrées ici ont été calculées pour deux inclinaisons du système par rapport à l’observateur (60° et 85°) et pour des longueurs d’onde dans le visible (de 0.6 à 1.2 microns) et dans l’infra-rouge thermique (entre 10 et 11 microns). On voit des différences dans ces images correspondant à des effets géométriques et aussi physiques dus à des variations des contributions relatives de l’étoile B, de l’émission du gaz ionisé dans la partie centrale, et de la poussière (formée à partir d’une distance limite où la température de la poussière est inférieure à 1500 K).

Ces images basées sur un modèle physique sont essentielles pour interpréter des observations en haute résolution angulaire avec des spectro-interférométres tels que VEGA/CHARA, VLTI/AMBER, VLTI/MIDI, VLTI/MATISSE (instrument de deuxième génération).
