This analysis highlights how electromagnetic waves deviate and change frequency when interacting with gravitational waves, suggesting MASERS/RASERS for detection.
In this note, we discuss interesting aspects of the interaction of electromagnetic waves (EMW) with gravitational waves (GWs) and how we can use them for GW detection. We show that there is (i) a deviation from the original path of the EMW, as measured by an angle of the scattered EMW, as well as (ii) a change in frequency. We show that the angular deviation is dependent on the frequency of the initial EMW and GW and suggest the use of MASERS/RASERS instead of LASERS for GW detection. We also briefly examine the influence of the Earth’s rotation and revolution, which can be sources of noise in the measurement of the angular deviation of EMW.
