- Title
Induced Electromagnetic Radiation from a Charged Cloud in a Plane Gravitational Wave.
- Authors
Epp, V.; Osterin, K.
- Abstract
For the perturbative model of a plane gravitational wave on a flat background of Minkowski space-time, electromagnetic radiation from a charged cloud in the field of a gravitational wave, detected by a remote observer, was found. It is shown that the charge density in the cloud does not change, and the radiation is generated by currents induced by the gravitational wave. The angular distribution of the radiation is obtained. If the refractive index of the cloud medium is greater than unity, Cherenkov-type radiation is generated.
