There exist gravitational memory effects in Brans-Dicke theory. They are closely related to the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs symmetries living on the null infinity in an isolated system. By studying the asymptotically flat spacetime in Brans-Dicke…

Most studies of the pulsar magnetosphere have assumed a pure magnetic dipole in flat spacetime. However, recent work suggests that the effects of general relativity are in fact of vital importance and that realistic pulsar magnetic fields…

We have observed a quadratic x-ray magneto-optical effect in near-normal incidence reflection at the M-edges of iron. The effect appears as the magnetically induced rotation of ca. 0.1$ degrees of the polarization plane of linearly…

We study the non-conservation of the chiral charge of Dirac fields between past and future null infinity due to the Adler-Bell-Jackiw chiral anomaly. In previous investigations \cite{dR21}, we found that this charge fails to be conserved if…
