Maxwell-Heaviside description of curvature waves : a second generation model

Kralj-Iglič, Veronika (author), Romolo, Anna (author)

A model is presented to describe curvature waves in analogy with derivation of light waves in free space. Starting from Maxwell-Heavisine equations, the differential wave equations for electric and magnetic fields are derived, and their solution, i.e. sinusoidal depedence on space and time at precisely defined speed - determined by the permittivity and permeability of free space is given. This formalism is then applied to the gravitational and kinetic fields subjected to the curvature of space. Massive bodies are described as curvature lumps - regions with given average space curvature distinguished from the background space curvature. Companion kinetic field is represented by the deviation of the angular frequency of the curvature lump from the baseline. The identity of the companion field was indicated from dimensional analysis.
