Scientific paper

Braginsky and Mensky have described a novel gravitational wave detector based on a special “gravitational-electromagnetic resonance” in an annular waveguide. Their analysis is based on geometrical optics. If the configuration is analyzed as a perturbed boundary-value problem, however, no special resonance is evident. Nor does a more general cavity exhibit such a resonance. This paper concludes with a moral: When investigating the interaction of gravity and electromagnetism, one must be circumspect in applying the eikonal approximation.
