Remarks on infinite towers of gravitational memories

Abstract An infinite tower of gravitational memories was proposed in [1] by considering the matter-induced vacuum transition in the impulsive limit. We give an alternative realization of the infinite towers of gravitational memories in Newman-Penrose formalism. We also demonstrate that the memories...
