This paper performs a systematic investigation of geodesic motion in Euclidean Schwarzschild geometry, which is studied in the equatorial plane. The explicit form of geodesic motion is obtained in terms of incomplete elliptic integrals of first, second and third kind. No elliptic-like orbits exist in Euclidean Schwarzschild geometry, unlike the corresponding Lorentzian pattern. Among unbounded orbits, only unbounded first-kind orbits are allowed, unlike general relativity where unbounded second-kind orbits are always allowed.

Article Synopsis
  • The movement of a test mass along a geodesic is vital for detecting gravitational waves in space, requiring advanced inertial sensors to counteract noise from external forces.
  • Ground-based testing of these sensors is critical to ensure their performance and reliability for future space missions.
  • A new low-frequency torsion pendulum apparatus, using a commercial autocollimator for optical readings, has been developed, achieving impressive sensitivity and providing valuable insights for improving inertial sensor designs.

Since Einstein's prediction regarding the existence of gravitational waves was directly verified by the ground-based detector Advanced LIGO, research on gravitational wave detection has garnered increasing attention. To overcome limitations imposed by ground vibrations and interference at arm's length, a space-based gravitational wave detection initiative was proposed, which focuses on analyzing a large number of waves within the frequency range below 1 Hz. Due to the weak signal intensity, the TMs must move along their geodesic orbit with a residual acceleration less than 10 m/s/Hz.

In this paper, we address the problem of estimating the position of a mobile such as a drone from noisy position measurements using the framework of Lie groups. To model the motion of a rigid body, the relevant Lie group happens to be the Special Euclidean group SE(n), with n=2 or 3. Our work was carried out using a previously used parametric framework which derived equations for geodesic regression and polynomial regression on Riemannian manifolds.

Using effective field theory methods, we derive the Carrollian analog of the geodesic action. We find that it contains both "electric" and "magnetic" contributions that are in general coupled to each other. The equations of motion descending from this action are the Carrollian pendant of geodesics, allowing surprisingly rich dynamics.

We derive an effective field theory describing a pair of gravitationally interacting point particles in an expansion in their mass ratio, also known as the self-force (SF) expansion. The 0SF dynamics are trivially obtained to all orders in Newton's constant by the geodesic motion of the light body in a Schwarzschild background encoding the gravitational field of the heavy body. The corrections at 1SF and higher are generated by perturbations about this configuration-that is, the geodesic deviation of the light body and the fluctuation graviton-but crucially supplemented by an operator describing the recoil of the heavy body as it interacts with the smaller companion.
