Probing minihalo lenses with diffracted gravitational waves

Mark Ho-Yeuk Cheung, Ken K. Y. Ng, Miguel Zumalacárregui +1

When gravitational waves pass near a gravitating object, they are deflected, or lensed. If the object is massive, such that the wavelength of the waves is small compared to its gra…

Probing general relativistic spin-orbit coupling with gravitational waves from hierarchical triple systems

Marius A. Oancea, Richard Stiskalek, Miguel Zumalacárregui

Wave packets propagating in inhomogeneous media experience a coupling between internal and external degrees of freedom and, as a consequence, follow spin-dependent trajectories. Th…

Weakly Lensed Gravitational Waves: Probing Cosmic Structures with Wave-Optics Features

Stefano Savastano, Giovanni Tambalo, Hector Villarrubia-Rojo +1

Every signal propagating through the universe is at least weakly lensed by the intervening gravitational field. In some situations, wave-optics phenomena (diffraction, interference…

Probing lens-induced gravitational-wave birefringence as a test of general relativity

Srashti Goyal, Aditya Vijaykumar, Jose Maria Ezquiaga +1

Theories beyond general relativity (GR) modify the propagation of gravitational waves (GWs). In some, inhomogeneities (aka. gravitational lenses) allow interactions between the met…
