Gravitational Waves: From Theory to Applications in 90 Minutes — •Tobias Schröder and Richard von Eckardstein — Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Münster, Münster, Germany

In this tutorial, we will give a low-level introduction to gravitational waves. Starting from linearised gravity, we arrive at the notion of gravitational waves and consider their propagation on a Minkowski background. After investigating the effect of gravitational waves on the propagation of light, we use these results to gain insight into modern measurement techniques such as pulsar timing array experiments.

No prior knowledge of general relativity will be required.

Keywords: Gravitational Waves (GWs); Linearised Gravity; Speed of GWs; Pulsar Timing Arrays (PTAs); GW Detection
