The gravitational waves that act on a device are detected by LIGO. In this process, the energy and form of the gravitational waves must be affected by the device.
The problem is: This gravitational waves are from the distance of 13*108 light-year, why the gravitational waves have not been affected by other celestial body, fields and mass as that by the device?
Therefore, some think that the Figure 1 in the original paper of LIGO by B. P. Abbott et al is too perfect to this problem.
To image that: As a black hole (which makes space big curved) is moving contrary to the direction of the gravitational waves (the space ripples) moving to the Earth, what shall happen to this waves?
Gravitational waves interact very weakly indeed with matter in general. So it is not surprising that the wave form was unaffected in spite of the event being quite distant.
Dear Amrit,
that's a bit of a far reaching conclusion, isn't it. It concerns a very different kind of experiment than the recent report of the LIGO's et al. Maybe they'll still be proven wrong some day, it's totally out of my range to judge this. And that's how science goes.
But reading the paper gives me the impression they do have a good point.
Cheers
@Yin Zhu,
the number of events out there - I think that belongs to the actual questions to (hopefully) find some answers in the forthcoming years. As far as I understand this is not really known.
As you, I am amazed by the data in Fig. 1 of the recent PRL. What is interesting is that it was recorded with 2 instruments at the same time. As more detectors may go 'online' simultaneously, we will hopefully see even more evidence for the realness of these observations. Time will tell.
Gravity waves expand and flatten as they propagate, arriving at the detector as a small section of the wave that is not greatly different from flat space in the dimensions of the detectors.
Amrit Sorli - it's not clear how you are disproving the results from LIGO 2016 with *earlier results* carried out by BICEP2, an entirely different experiment. I suspect you forgot to check the date on that article.
LIGO and the gravitational waves: the Biggest and the most Expensive LIE in science!
“They detected what can not be detected: gravitons having the speed of light and positive mass“ Adrian Ferent
LIGO scientists estimate that the black holes for this event were about 29 and 36 times the mass of the sun, and the event took place 1.3 billion years ago.
It is like SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence an exploratory science that seeks evidence of life in the universe!
What they discovered:
1. They calculated the postive mass of the graviton, my theory explains that this is wong!
If the graviton has positive mass, it has positive momentum this means the Earth pushes you, and we suppose to fly!
“I am the first who understood and explained the Gravitation with high speed gravitons v = 1.001762 × 1017 m/s, with Negative Momentum, Negative Mass and Negative Energy” Adrian Ferent
2. Black holes have the escape velocity bigger than the speed of light, this means the gravitons with the speed of light can not escape, this means they will never be able to come to Earth, to LIGO!
“How light can’t escape from inside event horizon of Black holes, in the same way the gravitons with the speed of light c = 2.9979 × 108 m/s can't escape from inside the event horizon. Only high speed gravitons, v = 1.001762 × 1017 m/s, can escape from inside the event horizon of Black holes and keep the galaxy together” Adrian Ferent
Einstein Gravitation theory: Gravitation is a distortion of space-time.
Ferent Gravitation theory: Gravitation is a force mediated by gravitons.
Einstein Gravitation theory is wrong and Ferent Gravitation theory is right!
