Colliding gravitational plane waves in dilaton gravity.
Collision of plane waves in dilaton gravity theories and low energy limit of string theory is considered. The formulation of the problem and some exact solutions are presented PACS: 04.20.Jb , 04.40.Nr , 04.30.Nk , 11.27.+d
متن کاملConformal geometry of gravitational plane waves
It is well known that the conformal group of a non-flat vacuum pp-wave is at most 7-dimensional. Here we explicitly determine all solutions with a 7-dimensional group in three particular families of gravitational plane waves. All of them are exact solutions in terms of elementary functions. Furthermore, it turns out that a gravitational plane wave with a 6-dimensional homothety group (larger th...
متن کاملA longitudinal component in massive gravitational waves arising from a bimetric theory of gravity
After a brief review of the work of de Paula, Miranda and Marinho on massive gravitational waves arising from a bimetric theory of gravity, in this paper it is shown that the presence of the mass generates a longitudinal component in a particular polarization of the wave. The effect of this polarization on test masses is performed using the geodesic deviation. A the end of this paper the detect...
متن کاملGravitational Higgs Mechanism and Massive Gravity
In [1], in the context of domain wall backgrounds, it was shown that spontaneous breaking of diffeomorphism invariance results in gravitational Higgs mechanism. Recently in [2] ’t Hooft discussed gravitational Higgs mechanism in the context of obtaining massive gravity directly in four dimensions, and pointed out some subtleties with unitarity. We attribute these subtleties to breaking time-lik...
متن کاملHelicity-Rotation-Gravity Coupling for Gravitational Waves
The consequences of spin-rotation-gravity coupling are worked out for linear gravitational waves. The coupling of helicity of the wave with the rotation of a gravitational-wave antenna is investigated and the resulting modifications in the Doppler effect and aberration are pointed out for incident high-frequency gravitational radiation. Extending these results to the case of a gravitomagnetic f...
