Theory Of Gravity

We show that the stochastic background of gravitational waves, produced in the early cosmological epochs, depends strictly on the assumed theory of gravity. In particular, the specific form of the function f(R), where R is the Ricci scalar, is related to the evolution and the production mechanism of gravitational waves. On the other hand, detecting the stochastic background by the forthcoming interferometric experiments (VIRGO, LIGO, LISA) could be a further tool to select the effective theory of gravity.

The Universe

A large majority of the physics and astronomy communities are now sure that gravitational waves exist, can be looked for, and can be studied via their effects on laboratory apparatus as well as on astronomical objects. So far, everything found out has agreed with the predictions of general relativity, but hopes are high for new information about the universe and its contents and perhaps for hints of a better theory of gravity than general relativity (which even Einstein expected to come eventually). This is one version of the story, from 1905 to the present, told from an unusual point of view, because the author was, for 28.5 years, married to Joseph Weber, who built the first detectors starting in the early 1960s and operated one or more until his death on 30 September 2000.

We show that, based on important reasons, differently from some recent claim in the literature, the YARK theory of gravity can reproduce neither the LIGO “GW150914 signal”, nor the other LIGO detections of gravitational waves (GWs).

Theory Of Gravity

The generation of massive Gravitational Waves (GW) from metric f(R) theory of gravity is studied and the sensitivity of a spherical antenna detector towards such a wave is looked into. The energy sensitivity is maximum for the monopole mode of the sphere. Of the five quadrupole modes of a sphere, only three are triggered by a massive wave. Also, the sensitivity of a spherical antenna with mechanical resonators attached to it is studied. The Truncated Icosahedral Gravitational wave Antenna (TIGA), originally proposed for detecting the effect of massless GW on the quadrupole modes of a sphere, has been modified in this paper to get a Modified TIGA, in order to detect the sensitivity of monopole modes towards a massive wave.

Theory Of Gravity

We analyze the gravitational waves within the Spinor Theory of Gravity (STG) and compare it with the General Relativity proposal. In the case of STG, a gravitational wave may occur if the effective gravitational metric induced by the spinorial field is Ricci flat.
