First results of the LARES 2 space experiment to test the general theory of relativity

Ignazio Ciufolini, Claudio Paris, Erricos C. Pavlis +8

The LAGEOS 3 (today LARES 2) space experiment was proposed in the eighties by the Physics Department and by the Center of Space Research (CSR) of the University of Texas (UT) at Au…

The LIGO HET Response (LIGHETR) Project to Discover and Spectroscopically Follow Optical Transients Associated with Neutron Star Mergers

M. J. Bustamante-Rosell, Greg Zeimann, J. Craig Wheeler +20

The LIGO HET Response (LIGHETR) project is an enterprise to follow up optical transients (OT) discovered as gravitational wave merger sources by the LIGO/Virgo collaboration (LVC).…

Self-collision of a portal wormhole

Justin C. Feng, José P. S. Lemos, Richard A. Matzner

We consider the self-collision of portals in classical general relativity. Portals are wormholes supported by a single loop of negative mass cosmic string, and being wormholes, por…

Gauge Fixing and Constrained Dynamics

Jon Allen, Richard A. Matzner

We review the Dirac formalism for dealing with constraints in a canonical Hamiltonian formulation and discuss gauge freedom and display constraints for gauge theories in a general…

A new laser-ranged satellite for General Relativity and Space Geodesy II. Monte Carlo Simulations and covariance analyses of the LARES 2 Experiment

Ignazio Ciufolini, Erricos C. Pavlis, Giampiero Sindoni +4

In the previous paper we have introduced the LARES 2 space experiment. The LARES 2 laser-ranged satellite is planned for a launch in 2019 with the new VEGA C launch vehicle of the…

A new laser-ranged satellite for General Relativity and space geodesy: III. De Sitter effect and the LARES 2 space experiment

Ignazio Ciufolini, Richard Matzner, Vahe Gurzadyan +1

In two previous papers we presented the LARES 2 space experiment aimed at a very accurate test of frame-dragging and at other tests of fundamental physics and measurements of space…
