Astrophysical Applications of the Gravitational Searchlight

چکیده
The astrophysical consequences of the blue-shifted radiation emitted in the forward direction by a source moving in an equatorial orbit with radius slightly in excess of 1.5 times the Schwarzschild radius of a highly collapsed central object are examined with special reference to quasistellar objects.

Study of a Restricted Modified Gravity on astrophysical and cosmological scales
p { margin-bottom: 0in; direction: rtl; text-align: right; }p.ctl { font-size: 12pt; }a:link { color: rgb(0, 0, 255); } In this paper, we study a restricted modified gravity in which diffeomorphism symmetry is broken. We investigate the astrophysical implications of the model by using the corresponding gravitational potential. By using the weight function of the weak lensing , for the model,...
متن کاملLectures on Gravitational Lensing
These lectures give an introduction to Gravitational Lensing. We discuss lensing by point masses, lensing by galaxies, and lensing by clusters and larger-scale structures in the Universe. The relevant theory is developed and applications to astrophysical problems are discussed.
متن کاملAstrophysical Effects of Extreme Gravitational Lensing Events
Every astrophysical object (dark or not) is a gravitational lens, as well as a receiver/observer of the light from sources lensed by other objects in its neighborhood. For a given pair of source and lens, there is a thin on-axis tubelike volume behind the lens in which the radiation flux from the source is greatly increased due to gravitational lensing. Any objects which pass through such a thi...
متن کاملممانهای گرانشی خورشید
Gravitational multipole moments of the Sun are still poorly known. Theoretically, the difficulty is mainly due to the differential rotation for which the velocity rate varies both on the surface and with the depth. From an observational point of view, the multipole moments cannot be directly measured. However, recent progresses have been made proving the existence of a strong radial different...
متن کاملThe Detection of Gravitational Waves with LIGO
Gravitational wave emission is expected to arise from a variety of astrophysical phenomena. A new generation of detectors with sensitivity consistent with expectation from such sources is being developed. The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), one of these ambitious undertakings, is being developed by a Caltech-MIT collaboration. It consists of two widely separated inte...
