Gravitational Wave Displacement and Velocity Memory Effects

Understand

In this article, we compare in detail the linear and nonlinear approach to the Gravitational Waves Displacement and Velocity Memory (GWDM and GWVM) effects.

• We consider astrophysical situations that give rise to gravitational waves with GWVM effect, i.e.
• with a residual velocity (the so-called "velocity-coded memory") and discuss the possibility of future detection of the GWVM effect.
