Electromagnetic radiation from a point-like charge in a weak gravitational wave: a Shapiro-delay-motivated approach

We investigate the field of a point-like electric charge freely falling in a gravitational wave. In the presence of a gravitational wave, the initially static Coulomb field of the charge becomes time-dependent and generates corresponding radiation. The gravitational wave is treated as a weak perturbation of the Minkowski metric. The electromagnetic four-potential of the charge is sought as a solution to Maxwell's equations in the gravitational wave metric, to first order in perturbation theory. The potentials of the point charge are found in quadratures throughout the space. To regularize the potentials, an approach motivated by the Shapiro effect for the time delay of radiation in a gravitational field is used. The potentials of the charge in the far zone are calculated explicitly for a monochromatic, arbitrarily polarized gravitational wave. The angular distribution of the electromagnetic radiation induced by the gravitational wave is obtained.

Linear perturbations of an exact gravitational wave in the Bianchi IV universe

The proper-time method for constructing perturbative dynamical gravitational fields is presented. Using the proper-time method, a perturbative analytical model of gravitational waves against the backdrop of an exact wave solution of Einstein's equations in a Bianchi IV universe is constructed. To construct the perturbative analytical wave model a privileged wave coordinate system and a synchronous time function associated with the proper time of an observer freely moving in a gravitational wave were used. Reduction of the field equations, taking into account compatibility conditions, reduces the mathematical model of gravitational waves to a system of coupled ordinary differential equations for functions of the wave variable. Analytical solutions for the components of the gravitational-wave metric have been found. The stability of the resulting perturbative solutions is proven. The stability of the exact solution for a gravitational wave in the anisotropic Bianchi IV universe is demonstrated.

Electromagnetic radiation from a relativistic jet induced by a plane gravitational wave

Electromagnetic radiation of a relativistic gas or plasma jet in the field of a plane gravitational wave is investigated. The gravitational wave is considered as a weak (linearized) field on flat Minkowski spacetime. It is assumed that the relativistic jet has large regions with uncompensated electric charge. The deformation of these areas under the action of a gravitational wave leads to the appearance of electric currents that generate electromagnetic radiation. The angular distribution of the intensity of this radiation is found. Cases are considered when the jet and the gravitational wave move in the same direction or towards each other.

An exact model of a gravitational wave in the Bianchi III universe based on Shapovalov II wave spacetime and the quadratic theory of gravity

Exact models of primordial gravitational waves in the Bianchi type III universe are constructed on the basis of the quadratic theory of gravity with a scalar field and pure radiation in Shapovalov wave spacetimes of type II (subtype 2). Exact solutions of field equations and scalar equation are obtained. The characteristics of pure radiation are determined. An explicit form of the scalar field functions included in the Lagrangian of the considered quadratic theory of gravity is found. Trajectories of propagation of light rays in the considered gravitational-wave models are obtained.

Type I Shapovalov wave spacetimes in the Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theory of gravity

Exact solutions for Shapovalov wave spacetimes of type I in the scalar-tensor theory of gravity of Brans-Dicke are constructed. Shapovalov's wave spacetimes describe gravitational-wave models that allow the separation of wave variables in privileged coordinate systems. In contrast to the general theory of relativity, the vacuum field equations of the Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theory of gravity lead to exact solutions for type I Shapovalov spaces, which makes it possible to construct observational checks for detecting such wave disturbances. For the models under consideration, equations for the trajectories of test particles are obtained.

Quadratic theory of gravity with a scalar field and type I Shapovalov wave spacetimes

For the quadratic theory of gravity with a scalar field, exact solutions are found for gravitational-wave models in Shapovalov~I~type spacetimes, which do not arise in models of the general theory of relativity. The theory of gravity under consideration can effectively describe the early stages of the dynamics of the universe. Type I Shapovalov spaces are the most general form of gravitational-wave Shapovalov spacetimes, whose metric in privileged coordinate systems depends on three variables, including the wave variable. For Einstein vacuum spacetimes, these wave models degenerate into simpler types. The obtained exact models of gravitational waves in the quadratic theory of gravity can be used to test the realism of such theories of gravity.

Gravitational Waves of Type III Shapovalov Spacetimes: Particle Trajectories, Geodesic Deviation and Tidal Accelerations

For gravitational-wave spacetimes of Shapovalov type III, exact general solutions of geodesic deviation equations and equations of motion of test particles are obtained. Solutions are found in a privileged coordinate system, where the metric of the considered spacetime models depends on the wave variable. The exact form of tidal accelerations of the gravitational wave is obtained. In the considered wave models of spacetime, the complete integral of the Hamilton-Jacobi equations of test particles can be constructed. An explicit form of the equations for the transition to a synchronous coordinate system is found, where the proper time of a test particle on the base geodesic is chosen as the time variable, and the time and space variables are separated. In the synchronous coordinate system, the form of the metric of the considered wave spacetime is presented, the form of the geodesic deviation vector and the tidal acceleration vector are obtained. The methods used in the paper and the results obtained are applicable to gravitational waves both in the general theory of relativity and in modified theories of gravity. The proposed approaches are applied to the case of Einstein's vacuum equations.

Deviation of geodesics and particle trajectories in a gravitational wave of the Bianchi type VI universe

For the Bianchi type VI universe, exact solutions of the equation of geodesic deviation in a strong primordial gravitational wave in a privileged coordinate system are obtained. The solutions refer to Shapovalov's gravitational-wave models of spacetime and allow the existence of complete integrals of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for test particles. For all the solutions obtained, the analytical form of the tidal acceleration vector in a strong primordial gravitational wave is obtained. An explicit form of the coordinate transformation, an explicit form of the metric of the primordial gravitational wave of the Bianchi type VI universe, and the form of the tidal acceleration vector in the laboratory synchronous coordinate system are obtained. The synchronous coordinate system is associated with a freely falling observer and allows the observer to separate time and spatial coordinates, as well as to synchronize time at different points in space. The presented mathematical approach can be applied both in the general theory of relativity and in modified theories of gravity.

Gravitational wave of the Bianchi VII universe: particle trajectories, geodesic deviation and tidal accelerations

For the gravitational wave model based on the type III Shapovalov wave space-time, test particle trajectories and the exact solution of geodesic deviation equations for the Bianchi type VII universe are obtained. Based on the found 4-vector of deviation, tidal accelerations in a gravitational wave are calculated. For the obtained solution in a privileged coordinate system, an explicit form of transformations into a synchronous reference system is found, which allows time synchronization at any points of space-time with separation of time and spatial coordinates. The synchronous reference system used is associated with a freely falling observer on the base geodesic. In a synchronous coordinate system, an explicit form of the gravitational wave metric, a 4-vector of geodesic deviation, and a 4-vector of tidal accelerations in a gravitational wave are obtained. The exact solution describes a variant of the primordial gravitational wave. The results of the work can be used to study the plasma radiation generated by tidal accelerations of a gravitational wave.

A complete classification of space-time models is presented, which admit the privileged coordinate systems, where the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for a test particle is integrated by the method of complete separation of variables with separation of the isotropic (wave) variable, on which the metric of space depends (wave-like Shapovalov spaces). For all types of Shapovalov spaces, exact solutions of the Einstein equations with a cosmological constant in vacuum are found. Complete integrals are presented for the eikonal equation and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of motion of test particles.

Spatially homogeneous conformal Stäckel spacetimes of type (3.1)

In this work, we obtain all spatially homogeneous space-time models related to the intersection of the set of Stäckel spaces of type (2.1) and the set of conformally Stäckel spaces of type (3.1). These models allow a complete separation of variables both in the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for massive test particles and in the eikonal equation for radiation. The models obtained in this work relate to wave-like space-time models. For the found models, solutions of the Einstein equations with the cosmological constant and radiation are obtained. For the obtained solutions, the eikonal equation and the equations of motion of massive test particles in the Hamilton-Jacobi form are integrated.

All classes of spatially homogeneous space-time models are found that allow the integration of the equations of motion of test particles and the eikonal equation by the method of complete separation of variables according to type (2.1). Four classes of model data are obtained. The resulting models can be applied in any modified metric theories of gravity. Two of the above models allow solutions of the Einstein equations with a cosmological constant and radiation. For the models of a spatially homogeneous Universe with a cosmological constant and radiation obtained in Einstein's theory of gravity, the Hamilton-Jacobi equations of motion of the test particles and the eikonal equation for radiation are integrated by the method of separation of variables.
