Gravitational memory in higher dimensions

Abstract It is shown that there is a universal gravitational memory effect measurable by inertial detectors in even spacetime dimensions d ≥ 4. The effect falls off at large radius r as r 3−d . Moreover this memory effect sits at one corner of an infrared triangle with the other two corners occupied...
