The gravitational memory effects of Chern-Simons modified gravity are considered in the asymptotically flat spacetime. If the Chern-Simons scalar does not directly couple with the ordinary matter fields, there are also displacement, spin and center-of-mass memory effects as in general relativity. This is because the term of the action that violates the parity invariance is linear in the scalar field but quadratic in the curvature tensor. This results in the parity violation occuring at the higher orders in the inverse luminosity radius. The scalar field does not induce any new memory effects that can be detected by interferometers or pulsar timing arrays. The asymptotic symmetry is group is also the extended Bondi-Metzner-Sachs group. The constraints on the memory effects excited by the tensor modes are obtained.

  1. Gravitational lensing of gravitational waves: universal characteristics of strongly lensed memory waveforms

    gr-qc 2025-10 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Strongly lensed gravitational-wave memory waveforms acquire universal parity signatures—odd for type I/III images, even for type II—that can identify image type via a simple step-function approximation.

  2. Gravitational memory effects in Tachyon gravity

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In tachyon gravity, the scalar field adds a breathing memory mode to gravitational waves and modifies the Bondi mass loss and soft theorems.
