Light scattering by radiation fields: the optical medium analogy

Donato Bini, Pierluigi Fortini, Andrea Geralico +2

The optical medium analogy of a radiation field generated by either an exact gravitational plane wave or an exact electromagnetic wave in the framework of general relativity is dev…

IGEC2: A 17-month search for gravitational wave bursts in 2005-2007

P. Astone, L. Baggio, M. Bassan +50

We present here the results of a 515 days long run of the IGEC2 observatory, consisting of the four resonant mass detectors ALLEGRO, AURIGA, EXPLORER and NAUTILUS. The reported res…

Dixon's extended bodies and impulsive gravitational waves

Donato Bini, Pierluigi Fortini, Andrea Geralico +1

The "reaction" of an extended body to the passage of an exact plane gravitational wave is discussed following Dixon's model. The analysis performed shows several general features,…

Quadrupole effects on the motion of extended bodies in Kerr spacetime

Donato Bini, Pierluigi Fortini, Andrea Geralico +1

The motion of a body endowed with dipolar as well as quadrupolar structure is investigated in the Kerr background according to the Dixon's model, extending a previous analysis done…

Quadrupole effects on the motion of extended bodies in Schwarzschild spacetime

Donato Bini, Pierluigi Fortini, Andrea Geralico +1

The motion of an extended body up to the quadrupolar structure is studied in the Schwarzschild background following Dixon's model and within certain restrictions (constant frame co…

First joint Gravitational Waves search by the Auriga-Explorer-Nautilus-Virgo collaboration

Virgo collaboration

We present results of the search for coincident burst excitations over a 24 hours long data set collected by AURIGA, EXPLORER, NAUTILUS and Virgo detectors during September 2005. T…
