论文摘要
一般相对论的方程是以Weyl张量的波方程的形式重塑。这允许从曲率波而不是度量波来重新重新重新引力波理论。证明了两个曲率波的横向极化状态的存在，并且在线性近似中，四极杆公式被重新修复。概述了将线性化结果扩展到非线性状态的扰动方案。
The equations of General Relativity are recast in the form of a wave equation for the Weyl tensor. This allows to reformulate gravitational wave theory in terms of curvature waves, rather than metric waves. The existence of two transverse polarization states for curvature waves is proven and in the linearized approximation the quadrupole formula is rederived. A perturbative scheme to extend the linearized result to the non-linear regime is outlined.
