Following the demonstration that gravitational waves impart linear momentum, it is argued that if they are polarized they should impart angular momentum to appropriately placed 'test rods' in their path. A general formula for this angular…

We show that gravitational waves can act as waveguides for electromagnetic radiation, that is if the latter is initially aligned with the gravitational waves, then the alignment will survive during the propagation. The analysis is performed…
Cosmic bubbles are nucleated through the quantum tunneling process. After nucleation they would expand and undergo collisions with each other. In this paper, we focus in particular on collisions of two equal-sized bubbles and compute…
