The response of optical fibres to gravitational waves
Abstract
The response of optical fibre modes to plane gravitational waves (GW's) of low frequency is computed. By solving perturbatively the Maxwell equations for step-index optical fibres in a GW background and implementing appropriate boundary conditions to describe single-mode fibres, explicit formulae for the perturbations of the phase and the polarisation of the fibre modes are obtained.
