Gravitational Radiation from Massless Particle Collisions
We compute classical gravitational bremsstrahlung from the gravitational scattering of two massless particles at leading order in the (center of mass) deflection angle θ ∼ 4G √ s/b = 8GE/b ≪ 1. The calculation, although non-perturbative in the gravitational constant, is surprisingly simple and yields explicit formulae –in terms of multidimensional integrals– for the frequency and angular distri...
متن کاملGravitational waves and massless particle fields
These notes address the planar gravitational wave solutions of general relativity in empty space-time, and analyze the motion of test particles in the gravitational wave field. Next we consider related solutions of the Einstein equations for the gravitational field accompanied by long-range wave fields of scalar, spinor and vector type, corresponding to massless particles of spin s = (0, 1 2 , ...
متن کاملCalculating Gravitational Radiation from Collisions
The development of both groundand space-based gravitational wave detectors provides new opportunities to observe the radiation from binaries containing neutron stars and black holes. Numerical simulations in 3-D are essential for calculating the coalescence waveforms, and comprise some of the most challenging problems in astrophysics today. This article briefly reviews the current status of eff...
متن کاملRadiation reaction for a massless charged particle
We derive effective equations of motion for a massless charged particle coupled to the dynamical electromagnetic field having regard to the radiation back reaction. It is shown that unlike the massive case not all the divergences resulting from the self-action of the particle are Lagrangian, i.e. can be canceled out by adding appropriate counterterms to the original action. Besides, the order o...
متن کاملGravitational collapse of massless scalar field and radiation fluid
Several classes of exact solutions to the Einstein field equations coupled with either a massless scalar field or a radiation fluid are given, and their main properties are studied. It is found that some represent the formation of black holes due to the gravitational collapse of the matter fields. When the spacetimes have continuous self-similarity (CSS), the masses of black holes take a scalin...
