Abstract
AbstractWe reconsider the case of the geodesic motion of a massive and massless beam of test particles in a gravitational wave. In particular, we use a direct Lagrangian approach which simplifies the calculation. Our findings differ partly from previously performed calculations The final result can be interpreted as rings of light seen by the observer. We give a new interpretation to this picture and show that over large distances the effect, albeit rare, could in principle be observable.
