Interpretation of Gravitational-Wave Observations

Misner, C. W.·1972·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

If Weber's gravitational-wave observations are interpreted in terms of a source at the Galactic center, both the intensity and the frequency of the waves are more reasonable if the source is assumed to emit in a synchrotron mode (narrow angles, high harmonics). Although presently studied sources for such modes are astrophysically unsatisfactory---high-energy, nearly circular, scattering orbits---other possible sources are under study.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
