We consider the possibility that gravity is mediated by "continuous spin" particles, i.e.~ massless particles whose invariant spin scale $\rho_g$ is non-zero. In this case, the primary helicity-2 modes of gravitational radiation on a…
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.…
Spinning neutron stars can emit long-lived gravitational waves. There are several mechanisms that can produce such continuous wave emission. These mechanisms relate to the strains in the elastic crust, the star's magnetic field,…
