Derivative of the light frequency shift as a measure of spacetime curvature for gravitational wave detection

The measurement of frequency shifts for light beams exchanged between two test masses nearly in free fall is at the heart of gravitational wave detection. It is envisaged that the derivative of the frequency shift is in fact limited by differential forces acting on those test masses. We calculate th...
