Gravitational and electromagnetic memory

Published 4 Dec 2019 in gr-qc | (1912.01840v4)

Abstract: We present a unified investigation of memory effect in Einstein-Maxwell theory. We specify two types of memory effect, a velocity kick and a position displacement, by examining the motion of a single free falling charged test particle. Our result recovers the two known gravitational memory effect formulas and the two known electromagnetic memory effect formulas.
