Abstract: | The process of primordial black hole (PBH) formation is inevitably accompanied by scalar induced gravitational waves (SIGWs). The strong correlation between PBH and SIGW signals may offer a promising approach to detecting PBHs in upcoming gravitational wave experiments, such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). We investigate third order SIGWs during a radiation-dominated era in the case of the monochromatic primordial power spectrum \begin{document}$ \mathcal{P}_{\zeta}=A_{\zeta}k_*\delta\left(k-k_*\right) $\end{document}![]() . For LISA observations, the relationships between the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and monochromatic primordial power spectrum are studied systematically, revealing that the effects of third order SIGWs extend the cutoff frequency from \begin{document}$ 2f_* $\end{document}![]() to \begin{document}$ 3f_* $\end{document}![]() and lead to an approximately 200% increase in the SNR for the frequency band from \begin{document}$ 10^{-5} $\end{document}![]() Hz to \begin{document}$ 1.6\times 10^{-3} $\end{document}![]() Hz, corresponding to PBHs with masses in the range \begin{document}$4\times 10^{-12}M_{\odot} \sim 10^{-7}M_{\odot}$\end{document}![]() . We find that there is a critical value, \begin{document}$ A_*=1.76\times 10^{-2} $\end{document}![]() , for the amplitude of the monochromatic primordial power spectra, such that when \begin{document}$ A_{\zeta}>A_* $\end{document}![]() , the energy density of third order SIGWs is larger than that of second order SIGWs. |
