摘要
The nonlinear gravitational-wave memory effect is a prediction of general relativity in which test masses are permanently displaced by gravitational radiation. We implement a method for calculating the expected memory waveform from an oscillatory gravitational-wave time series. We use this method to explore the phenomenology of gravitational-wave memory using a numerical relativity surrogate model. Previous methods of calculating the memory have considered only the dominant oscillatory (l = 2, m = vertical bar 2 vertical bar) mode in the spherical harmonic decomposition or the post-Newtonian expansion. We explore the contribution of higher-order modes and reveal a richer phenomenology than is apparent with l = vertical bar m vertical bar = 2 modes alone. We also consider the "memory of the memory" in which the memory is, itself, a source of memory, which leads to a small, O(10(-4)), correction to the memory waveform. The method is implemented in the python package GWMEmoRY, which is made publicly available.
