We consider a family of globally stationary (horizonless), asymptotically flat solutions of five-dimensional supergravity. We prove that massless linear scalar waves in such soliton spacetimes cannot have a uniform decay rate faster than inverse logarithmically in time. This slow decay can be attributed to the stable trapping of null geodesics. Our proof uses the construction of quasimodes which are time periodic approximate solutions to the wave equation. The proof is based on previous work to prove an analogous result in Kerr-AdS black holes cite{holzegel:2013kna}. We remark that this slow decay is suggestive of an instability at the nonlinear level.
We study geodesics in the complete family of nonexpanding impulsive gravitational waves propagating in spaces of constant curvature, that is Minkowski, de Sitter and anti-de Sitter universes. Employing the continuous form of the metric we prove exist
Applying the Pomeransky inverse scattering method to the four-dimensional vacuum Einstein equation and using the Levi-Civita solution for a seed, we construct a cylindrically symmetric single-soliton solution. Although the Levi-Civita spacetime gener
Applying the Pomeransky inverse scattering method to the four-dimensional vacuum Einstein equations and using the Levi-Civita solution as a seed, we construct a two-soliton solution with cylindrical symmetry. In our previous work, we constructed the
In this talk I review recent progresses in the detection of scalar gravitational waves. Furthermore, in the framework of the Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory, I compute the signal to noise ratio for a resonant mass detector of spherical shape and for binary
