A Coordinate-Independent Formalism for Detecting High-Frequency Gravitational Waves

W Ratzinger, S Schenk, P Schwaller - arXiv preprint arXiv:2404.08572, 2024 - arxiv.org
In an external electric or magnetic field, a gravitational wave (GW) may be converted into
electromagnetic radiation. We present a coordinate-invariant framework to describe the GW …

Elastic rods and elastic spinning rings as gravitational wave detectors

J Natário, A Sasane, R Vicente - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.07547, 2024 - arxiv.org
Linearised relativistic elasticity equations of motion are considered for a rod and a spinning
ring encountering a gravitational wave. In the case of the rod, the equations reduce to a …

Coupling elastic media to gravitational waves: an effective field theory approach

E Belgacem, M Maggiore, T Moreau - arXiv preprint arXiv:2403.16550, 2024 - arxiv.org
The interaction of a gravitational wave (GW) with an elastic body is usually described in
terms of a GW" force" driving the oscillations of the body's normal modes. However, this …

Response of an Interferometer Mounted on an Elastic Square Plate to Gravitational Waves

T Spanner, T Mieling, S Palenta - arXiv preprint arXiv:2307.02824, 2023 - arxiv.org
Laser-interferometric gravitational wave detectors are commonly modeled as being at rest in
transverse-traceless coordinates (and thus geodesic). In this paper, we analyze what …
