The gravitational magnetic component and its magnetic effects in linearized theory of gravity

According to the General Relativity (GR), under the approximation of the weak field, the weak gravitational field not only contains the classical Newtonian gravitational field, but also contains a gravitomagnetic (GM) field analogous to the concept of magnetic field, and the name of GM field borrows the basic idea of the magnetic field in electrodynamics. In order to study the physical properties of GM field and its associated effects, firstly, we use a similarity transformation method to decompose the gravitomagnetic component from the second-order tensor field in linearized Einstein field equation and define the concept of the GM field. Then, on this basis, we consider a circular microtube model with uniform velocity fluids (or superfluids), and study the distribution characteristics of the far GM field by this special model. We use a simpler approximation approach to improve the previous calculation method of the GM field in these kind of rings model, the result shows that the distribution characteristic of the far GM field in this model is analogous to the magnetic field produced by a dipole, it is a good correspondence between this microtube model and the dipole model. After that, we have studied the dynamic characteristics of GM field by analogizing the properties of magnetic field, and studied the test particles’ tracks in the linear time-varying GM field and the cosine time-varying GM field in the first time. In addition, in order to improve the previous research methods of ‘gravitational induction’ and ‘frame dragging’ in the GR, we have designed a circular microtube model which has a double-layer structure and with the accelerating flow fluid (or superfluids), we use simpler mathematics than before to explain these two effects by this special model. In conclusion, this work provides some new methods for the study of GM field and its associated effects.
