We show that the parametric resonance of gravitational waves (GWs) occurs due to the axion coherent oscillation and the circular polarization of GWs is induced by the Chern–Simons coupling. However, we have never observed these signatures in the data of GWs. Using this fact, we give stringent constraints on the Chern–Simons coupling constant [Formula: see text] and the abundance of the light string axion. In particular, we improved the current bound [Formula: see text] by many orders of magnitude.
