The constraint on modified black holes with extreme mass ratio inspirals

The low-energy effective action of String Theory introduces corrections to the dilaton-graviton sector, resulting in deformed black holes beyond general relativity. We analyze extreme mass-ratio inspiral systems (EMRIs), where a stellar-mass object spirals into a slowly rotating supermassive black hole including a distinct deviation parameter. This study examines the effects of this deformation on gravitational wave fluxes, orbital evolution, and phase dynamics, incorporating leading-order post-Newtonian corrections. With one-year observations of EMRIs, we employ the Fisher information matrix method to evaluate the potential for detecting deviations from general relativity through space-based gravitational wave detectors that utilize time-delay interferometry to suppress laser noise. The constraint on modified black holes, 10^-5, is almost the same with and without the time-delay interferometry combination. This analysis enhances our understanding and underscores the crucial role of observations in advancing gravitational phenomena within String Theory.
