Gravitational Waves in Relativistic Theory of Gravitation

TL;DR

This paper demonstrates that in the Relativistic Theory of Gravitation with a massive graviton, gravitational waves do not carry negative energy flows due to causality constraints.

Contribution

It provides a novel analysis showing that causality prevents negative energy flows in gravitational waves within this theory.

Findings

Gravitational waves do not have negative energy flows.

Causality condition constrains wave energy properties.

Supports consistency of the relativistic gravitation theory.

Abstract

It is shown that, in the framework of Relativistic Theory of Gravitation with massive graviton, gravitational waves, due to the causality condition, do not bear negative energy flows.
