A comment on the Outgoing Radiation Condition for the gravitational field and the Peeling Theorem
نویسنده
چکیده
The connection between the Bondi-Sachs (BS) and the Newman-Penrose (NP) framework for the study of the asymptotics of the gravitational field is done. In particular the coordinate transformation relationg the BS luminosity parameter and the NP affine parameter is obtained. Using this coordinate transformation it is possible to express BS quantities in terms of NP quantities, and to show that if the Outgoing Radiation Condition is not satisfied then the spacetime will not decay in the way prescribed by the Peeling theorem.

Study of Solar Magnetic and Gravitational Energies Through the Virial Theorem
Virial theorem is important for understanding stellar structures. It produces an interesting connection between magnetic and gravitational energies. Using the general form of the virial theorem including the magnetic field (toroidal magnetic field), we may explain the solar dynamo model in relation to variations of the magnetic and gravitational energies. We emphasize the role of the gravitatio...
متن کاملFalloff of the Weyl scalars in binary black hole spacetimes
The peeling theorem of general relativity predicts that the Weyl curvature scalars Ψn (n = 0, . . . , 4), when constructed from a suitable null tetrad in an asymptotically flat spacetime, fall off asymptotically as rn−5 along outgoing radial null geodesics. This leads to the interpretation of Ψ4 as outgoing gravitational radiation at large distances from the source. We have performed numerical ...
متن کاملAccelerating Photons with Gravitational Radiation
The nature of superluminal photon propagation in the gravitational field describing radiation from a time-dependent, isolated source (the Bondi-Sachs metric) is considered in an effective theory which includes interactions which violate the strong equivalence principle. Such interactions are, for example, generated by vacuum polarisation in conventional QED in curved spacetime. The relation of ...
متن کاملA Novel Indicator to Predict the Onset of Instability of a Gravitational Flow on a Slope
In order to present a quantitative indicator for the onset of instability, in this paper, the critical points of a stratified gravitational flow on a slope are found and analyzed. These points are obtained by means of the solution of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations via the standard Arakawa-C finite-difference method. Results show that in the marginal Richardson numbers, the critical...
متن کاملThe effect of water column stability on underwater oil blowouts plume dynamics and peeling height
Considering the increase in number of offshore oil production projects and for better understanding of plume dynamics in accidental underwater oil blowouts, a series of laboratory experiments in a square cross section open top basin were carried out to investigate the effect of changes in seawater stratification and water column stability on plume dynamics and peeling height. Accordingly the o...
