Gravitoelectromagnetic knot fields
Abstract
We construct a class of knot solutions of the gravitoelectromagnetic (GEM) equations in vacuum in the linearized gravity approximation by analogy with the Ra\~nada-Hopf fields. For these solutions, the dual metric tensors of the bi-metric geometry of the gravitational vacuum with knot perturbations are given and the geodesic equation as a function of two complex parameters of the GEM knots are calculated. Finally, the Landau--Lifshitz pseudo-tensor and a scalar invariant of the GEM knots are computed.
