Probing nontensorial gravitational waves with a next-generation ground-based detector network

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Lijing Shao | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: In General Relativity, there are only two polarizations for gravitational waves. However, up to six polarizations are possible in a generic metric theory of gravity. Therefore, measuring the polarization content of gravitational waves provides an efficient way to test theories of […]
