Gravimagnetic effect of the barycentric motion of the Sun and determination of the post-Newtonian parameter gamma in the Cassini experiment

Kopeikin, Sergei M.; Polnarev, Alexander; Schafer, Gerhard; Vlasov, Igor, 1978- (arXiv, 2007)

The most precise test of the post-Newtonian gamma parameter in the solar system has been achieved in measurement of the frequency shift of radio waves to and from the Cassini spacecraft as they passed near the Sun. The ...
Gravitational Radiation Theory and Light Propagation

Blanchet, Luc; Kopeikin, Sergei M.; Schafer, Gerhard (arXiv, 2000)

The paper gives an introduction to the gravitational radiation theory of isolated sources and to the propagation properties of light rays in radiative gravitational fields. It presents a theoretical study of the generation, ...
