Gravito-electromagnetism is somewhat ubiquitous in relativity. In fact, there are many situations where the effects of gravitation can be described by formally introducing "gravito-electric" and "gravito-magnetic" fields, starting from the…
Gravitational wave echoes may imply physics beyond general relativity; however, several approaches to searching for echoes require fitting the data to toy templates which are not physically motivated. Here, I create a procedure which…
It was suggested earlier that the gravitational redshift formula can be invalid when the effect of the backscattering is strong. It is demonstrated here numerically, for an exemplary electromagnetic pulse that is: i) initially located very…

First order phase transitions in the early universe can give rise to a stochastic background of gravitational waves. A hypothetical first order electroweak phase transition is particularly interesting in this respect, since the signal is in…

A recent measurement of the gravitational redshift was based on interference of matter waves. Operation in microgravity can improve it by a factor of $10^5$ and, in some models, even $10^{10}$.
Einstein's special theory of relativity revolutionized physics by teaching us that space and time are not separate entities, but join as ``spacetime''. His general theory of relativity further taught us that spacetime is not just a stage on…
Even though one could already constrain different models in cosmology and Beyond Standard Model physics using CMB data, these models remained unconstrained at shorter wavelength scales, and knowledge of new physics at higher energy scales…
We discuss the quantum mechanical description of a gravitational wave interacting with a cavity electromagnetic field. Quantum fluctuations of the gravitational vacuum induce squeezing in the optical field. Moreover, this squeezing…

The nature of gravity can be tested by how gravitational waves (GWs) are emitted, detected, and propagate through the universe. Propagation tests are powerful, as small deviations compound over cosmological distances. However, GW…
