Gravitational Wave Physics
Gravitational waves are propagating fluctuations of gravitational fields, that is, ”ripples” in spacetime, generated mainly by moving massive bodies. These distortions of spacetime travel with the speed of light. Every body in the path of such a wave feels a tidal gravitational force that acts perpendicular to the waves direction of propagation; these forces change the distance between points, ...

diffraction_particle.m Animation of the diffraction of a stream of particles passing through a double slit (Figures 3, 4). The (xP, yP) coordinates of a point P on the detector screen are chosen at random. The irradiance IRRP at the point P with x coordinate xP is calculated using Equation (2). The irradiance is scaled so that its maximum value is 1 when at x = 0. Another random number SP is ge...
متن کاملTesting Theories of Gravity with a Spherical Gravitational Wave Detector
We consider the possibility of discriminating different theories of gravity using a recently proposed gravitational wave detector of spherical shape. We argue that the spin content of different theories can be extracted relating the measurements of the excited spheroidal vibrational eigenmodes to the Newman-Penrose parameters. The sphere toroidal modes cannot be excited by any metric GW and can...
