Polarisation Singularities of Gravitational Waves

Claire Rigouzzo, Sebastian Golat, Alex J. Vernon +3

Departure from idealised plane waves gives rise to intricate geometric structures in wave fields. One such structure is the polarisation singularity, which emerges when multiple mo…

Fresnel reflection coefficients in the Fourier domain for a planar surface in uniform motion parallel to its interface

Stéphane Azar, Sebastian Golat, Francisco J. Rodríguez-Fortuño

The optical reflection coefficient of a dielectric medium moving uniformly in the plane spanned by its surface is rigorously calculated using classical electrodynamics and special…
