When dealing with highly accurate modeling of time and frequency transfers into arbitrarily moving dielectrics medium, it may be convenient to work with Gordon's optical spacetime metric rather than the usual physical spacetime metric.…
We introduce an approximation to calculate the gravitational radiation produced by the collision of true-vacuum bubbles that is simple enough to allow the simulation of a phase transition by the collision of hundreds of bubbles. This…
It has long been known that gravitational waves from compact binary coalescing sources are responsible for a first-order displacement memory effect experienced by a pair of freely falling test masses. This constant displacement is sourced…
The gravitational wave memory effect is a prediction of general relativity. The presence of memory effect in gravitational wave signals not only provides the chance to test an important aspect of general relativity, but also represents a…
Gravitational wave (GW) memory, a permanent distortion of the space-time metric, is anticipated during the acceleration of relativistic jets in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). While the precise mechanism behind GRBs is not yet fully understood,…
Static observers remain on Killing-vector world lines and measure the rest-mass+kinetic energies of particles moving past them, and the flux of that mechanical energy through space and time. The total mechanical energy is the total flux…
We investigate the behavior of massless scalar, electromagnetic, and linearized gravitational perturbations near null infinity in d \geq 4 dimensional Minkowski spacetime (of both even and odd dimension) under the assumption that these…
We characterise the geometrical nature of smooth supertranslations defined on a generic non-expanding horizon (NEH) embedded in vacuum. To this end we consider the constraints imposed by the vacuum Einstein's equations on the NEH structure,…
The energy-loss formula of the production of gravitons by the binary is derived in the source theory formulation of gravity. Then, the quantum energy-loss formula involving radiative corrections is derived. We postulate an idea that…
Quantum fields possess zero-point or vacuum fluctuations which induce mechanical effects, namely generalised Casimir forces, on any scatterer. Symmetries of vacuum therefore raise fundamental questions when confronted with the principle of…
Using the Sparling form and a geometric construction adapted to spacetimes with a 2-dimensional isometry group, we analyse a quasi-local measure of gravitational energy. We then study the gravitational radiation through spacetime junctions…
Gravitational radiation plays an important role in astrophysics. Based on the fact that our universe is expanding, the gravitational radiation when a positive cosmological constant is presented has been studied along with two different ways…
In some models of quantum gravity, space-time is thought to have a foamy structure with non-trivial optical properties. We probe the possibility that photons propagating in vacuum may exhibit a non-trivial refractive index, by analyzing the…
The memory effect at null infinity, $\mathcal{I}^+$, can be defined in terms of the permanent relative displacement of test particles (at leading order in $1/r$) resulting from the passage of a burst of gravitational radiation. In $D=4$…
In this manuscript, we study the nearly flat approximation of a conformally invariant gravitational theory in metric measure space (MMS). In addition, we investigate the transformation of the energy-momentum tensor in this context and…
We study gravitational radiation for a positive value of the cosmological constant $\Lambda$. We rely on two battle-tested procedures: (i) We start from the same null coordinate system used by Bondi and Sachs for $\Lambda = 0$, but,…
Gravitational wave memory is theorized to arise from the integrated history of gravitational wave emission, and manifests as a spacetime deformation in the wake of a propagating gravitational wave. We explore the detectability of the memory…
One of the most subtle points in the modern relativistic models for microarcsecond astrometrical observations is the treatment of the influence of translational motion of gravitating bodies on the light propagation. This paper describes…
In this article, we compare in detail the linear and nonlinear approach to the Gravitational Waves Displacement and Velocity Memory (GWDM and GWVM) effects. We consider astrophysical situations that give rise to gravitational waves with…
It is a long-standing problem in general relativity that the notion of angular momentum of an isolated system has supertranslation ambiguity. In this paper, we argue that the ambiguity is essentially because of the gravitational wave…
