Proposed a model for gravitational waves from gamma ray bursts.
Suggests the wave could explain observed high-energy photon emissions.
Abstract
We compute analytically the tidal field and polarizations of an exact gravitational wave generated by a cylindrical beam of null matter of finite width and length in quadratic curvature gravity. We propose that this wave can represent the gravitational wave that keep up with the high energy photons produced in a gamma ray burst (GRB) source.
