abstract
We show that gravitational waves cause freely falling gyroscopes to precess relative to fixed distant stars, extending the stationary Lense-Thirring effect. The precession rate decays as the square of the inverse distance to the source, and is proportional to a suitable Noether current for dual asymptotic symmetries at null infinity. Integrating the rate over time yields a net rotation -- a `gyroscopic memory' -- whose angle reproduces the known spin memory effect but also contains an extra contribution due to the generator of gravitational electric-magnetic duality. The angle's order of magnitude for the first LIGO signal is estimated to be $\Phi\sim 10^{-35}$ arcseconds near Earth, but the effect may be substantially larger for supermassive black hole mergers.

Twisting asymptotically-flat spacetimes
Twisting asymptotically-flat spacetimes are brought into a generalized Bondi gauge with finite radial expansion, producing new flux-balance laws, Carroll-boost symmetries, and finite supertranslated Kerr–Taub–NUT metrics.

Covariant variation and its applications
A metric-compatible covariant variation of tensors has a non-closure anomaly that reproduces electromagnetic helicity flux under superrotations and generalizes to higher-spin and p-form radiative data.

Lorentz Covariant Supertranslation Frames for the Angular Momentum Aspect
Angular momentum in GR is made unambiguous by fixing supertranslation frames through the center-of-mass condition J_{\mu\nu}P^\nu=0, extended covariantly to the final state via P^i_\mu P^f_\nu J^{f\mu\nu}=0.
