Stochastic modelling of atmospheric gravity waves
Internal gravity waves have an important effect on the large-scale circulation of the middle atmosphere, which is conditioned by the deposition of momentum due to their breaking. The propagation of gravity waves is influenced by the properties of the background wind. This thesis examines this influence: it uses stochastic techniques to study gravity wave propagation through a randomly fluctuati...
متن کاملGravitational Wave Memory: A New Approach to Study Modified Gravity
It is well known that two types of gravitational wave memory exist in general relativity (GR): the linear memory and the non-linear, or Christodoulou memory. These effects, especially the latter, depend on the specific form of Einstein equation. It can then be speculated that in modified theories of gravity, the memory can differ from the GR prediction, and provides novel phenomena to study the...
متن کاملOn the propagation of atmospheric gravity waves in a non-uniform wind field: Introducing a modified acoustic-gravity wave equation
Atmospheric gravity waves play fundamental roles in a broad-range of dynamical processes extending throughout the Earth’s neutral atmosphere and ionosphere. In this paper, we present a modified form for the acoustic-gravity wave equation and its dispersion relationships for a compressible and non-stationary atmosphere in hydrostatic balance. Importantly, the solutions have been achieved without...
متن کاملStochastic Gravity
Gravity is treated as a stochastic phenomenon based on fluctuations of the metric tensor of general relativity. By using a (3+1) slicing of spacetime, a Langevin equation for the dynamical conjugate momentum and a FokkerPlanck equation for its probability distribution are derived. The Raychaudhuri equation for a congruence of timelike or null geodesics leads to a stochastic differential equatio...
متن کاملA Macroscopic Gravity Wave Effect
Gravitational waves, although generally associated with extremely microscopic effects, can displace by hundreds of kilometers the pulsar interstellar scintillation patterns that bathe the Earth. The combination of the pulsar and the interstellar medium acts as a kiloparsec-long, nature-provided gravity wave amplifier. We show how an effective scheme for the detection of periodic gravity waves c...
