Pseudoplane-wave gravitational calibrator for gravitational wave observatories

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2023
The precisions of existing gravitational calibrators for gravitational wave observatories are limited by their dependence on the relative position between the calibrators and the observatory's test masses. Here we present a novel geometry consisting of four quadrupole rotors placed at the vertices of a rectangle centered on the test mass.

The Poincaré and BMS flux-balance laws with application to binary systems

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Asymptotically flat spacetimes admit both supertranslations and Lorentz transformations as asymptotic symmetries. Furthermore, they admit super-Lorentz transformations, namely superrotations and superboosts, as outer symmetries associated with super ...

Metric reconstruction from celestial multipoles

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
The most general vacuum solution to Einstein’s field equations with no incoming radiation can be constructed perturbatively from two infinite sets of canonical multipole moments, which are found to be mapped into each other under gravitational electric ...

Gravitational breathing memory and dual symmetries

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Brans-Dicke theory contains an additional propagating mode which causes homogeneous expansion and contraction of test bodies in transverse directions.

Gravitational waves in the nonsymmetric gravitational theory [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Letters A, 1993
We prove that the flux of gravitational radiation from an isolated source in the Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory is identical to that found in Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.

Evanescent gravitational waves [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2020
We describe the properties of evanescent gravitational waves (EGWs)---wave solutions of Einstein equations which decay exponentially in some direction while propagating in another. Evanescent waves are well-known in acoustics and optics and have recently received much attention due to their extraordinary properties such as their transverse spin and ...

Multipole expansion of gravitational waves: from harmonic to Bondi coordinates

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We transform the metric of an isolated matter source in the multipolar post-Minkowskian approximation from harmonic (de Donder) coordinates to radiative Newman-Unti (NU) coordinates.

A Search for Gravitational Waves from Perturbed Black Hole Ringdowns in LIGO Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
According to General Relativity a perturbed black hole will return to a stable configuration by the emission of gravitational radiation in a superposition of quasi-normal modes. Such a perturbation will occur due to the coalescence of a black hole binary,

Gravitational waves [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1994
In the last few years there have been a number of significant developments in research towards the detection of gravitational radiation from astronomical objects. The construction of 3 large-scale (3- or 4-km) interferometric detectors has been funded; new high-sensitivity bars are under construction; there is a serious proposal using two ...

Gyroscopic gravitational memory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study the motion of a gyroscope located far away from an isolated gravitational source in an asymptotically flat spacetime. As seen from a local frame tied to distant stars, the gyroscope precesses when gravitational waves cross its path, resulting in
