Search for transient gravitational waves in coincidence with short duration radio transients during 2007-2013

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, others +999

We present an archival search for transient gravitational-wave bursts in coincidence with 27 single pulse triggers from Green Bank Telescope pulsar surveys, using the LIGO, Virgo a…

Gravitational Waves and Inspiraling Compact Binaries in Alternative Theories of Gravity

Saeed Mirshekari

This dissertation consists of four parts. In Part I, we briefly review fundamental theories of gravity, performed experimental tests, and gravitational waves. The framework and the…

Compact binary systems in scalar-tensor gravity: Equations of motion to 2.5 post-Newtonian order

Saeed Mirshekari, Clifford M. Will

We calculate the explicit equations of motion for non-spinning compact objects to 2.5 post-Newtonian order, or O(v/c)^5 beyond Newtonian gravity, in a general class of scalar-tenso…

Constraining Lorentz-violating, Modified Dispersion Relations with Gravitational Waves

Saeed Mirshekari, Nicolas Yunes, Clifford M. Will

Modified gravity theories generically predict a violation of Lorentz invariance, which may lead to a modified dispersion relation for propagating modes of gravitational waves. We c…

Carter-like constants of motion in the Newtonian and relativistic two-center problems

Saeed Mirshekari, Clifford M. Will

In Newtonian gravity, a stationary axisymmetric system admits a third, Carter-like constant of motion if its mass multipole moments are related to each other in exactly the same ma…

Energy-momentum Density of Gravitational Waves

Amir M. Abbassi, Saeed Mirshekari

In this paper, we elaborate the problem of energy-momentum in general relativity by energy-momentum prescriptions theory. Our aim is to calculate energy and momentum densities for…

Energy-momentum Distribution in Static and Non-static Cosmic String Space-times

Amir M. Abbassi, Saeed Mirshekari, Amir H. Abbassi

We elaborate the problem of energy-momentum in general relativity by energy-momentum prescriptions theory. In this regard, we calculate M\oller,Landau-Lifshitz, Papapetrou, Einstei…

Energy-momentum Prescriptions in General Spherically Symmetric Space-times

Saeed Mirshekari, Amir M. Abbassi

Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz, Papapetrou, Weinberg, and Møller energy-momentum prescriptions in general spherically symmetric space-times are investigated. It is shown that for two sp…

On Energy Distribution of Two Space-times with Planar and Cylindrical Symmetries

Saeed Mirshekari, Amir M. Abbassi

Considering encouraging Virbhadra's results about energy distribution of non-static spherically symmetric metrics in Kerr-Schild class, it would be interesting to study some space-…
