The gravitational search algorithm (GSA) is a novel heuristic method inspired by Newton's gravity and velocity equations. In addition, it is a population-based algorithm, in which each member (called an agent) in the population has a mass, velocity, and acceleration. Beginning with the first population state, agents influence each other via mass and velocity relations. This mutual effect causes agents to reach the optimum. Hence, the performance of the GSA to attain the optimum is related to the initial population formation, like other population-based algorithms. In this study, the orthogonal array (OA) concept is applied and injected to the GSA algorithm in the initialization phase. Hence, the GSA benefits from the homogenized agent distribution tendency of the OA. The implementation results are utilized to compare the conventional and proposed methods (i.e. conventional GSA and the so-called "OA-GSA"), and the efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated.

Higher dimensional metrics of colliding gravitational plane waves Gurses, M; Kahya, EO; Karasu, Atalay (2002-07-15) We give a higher even dimensional extension of vacuum colliding gravitational plane waves with the combinations of collinear and noncollinear polarized four-dimensional metrics. The singularity structure of space-time depends on the parameters of the solution.
Linearization in stability in gravity theories Altaş Kiracı, Emel; Tekin, Bayram; Department of Physics (2018) In a nonlinear theory, such as gravity, physically relevant solutions are usually hard to ﬁnd. Therefore, starting from a background exact solution with symmetries, one uses the perturbation theory, which albeit approximately, provides a lot of information regarding a physical solution. But even this approximate information comes with a price: the basic premise of a perturbative solution is that it should be improvable. Namely, by going to higher order perturbation theory, one should be able to improve and ...
Autoparallel orbits in Kerr Brans-Dicke spacetimes Cebeci, H; Dereli, T; Tucker, RW (2004-01-01) The bounded orbital motion of a massive spinless test particle in the background of a Kerr Brans-Dicke geometry is analysed in terms of worldlines that are auto-parallels of different metric compatible spacetime connections. In one case the connection is that of Levi-Civita with zero-torsion. In the second case the connection has torsion determined by the gradient of the Brans-Dicke background scalar field. The calculations permit one in principle to discriminate between these possibilities.
Massive higher derivative gravity theories Güllü, İbrahim; Tekin, Bayram; Department of Physics (2011) In this thesis massive higher derivative gravity theories are analyzed in some detail. One-particle scattering amplitude between two covariantly conserved sources mediated by a graviton exchange is found at tree-level in D dimensional (Anti)-de Sitter and flat spacetimes for the most general quadratic curvature theory augmented with the Pauli-Fierz mass term. From the amplitude expression, the Newtonian potential energies are calculated for various cases. Also, from this amplitude and the propagator structu...
Combined search for supersymmetry with photons in proton-proton collisions at root s=13 TeV Sirunyan, A. M.; et. al. (Elsevier BV, 2020-02-01) A combination of four searches for new physics involving signatures with at least one photon and large missing transverse momentum, motivated by generalized models of gauge-mediated supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking, is presented. All searches make use of proton-proton collision data at root s = 13 TeV, which were recorded with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2016, and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb(-1). Signatures with at least one photon and large missing transverse momentum are categorized ...
