In testing gravity a model-independent way, one of crucial tests is measuring the propagation speed of a gravitational wave (GW). In general relativity, a GW propagates with the speed of light, while in the alternative theories of gravity…

We suggest here a method to detect gravitational waves (GW) different from the interferometric approach. It is based on two critical steps: conversion of the GW action into rotational motion and subsequent conversion into electric current.…
