We investigate the energy of a theory with a unit vector field (the "aether") coupled to gravity. Both the Weinberg and Einstein type energy-momentum pseudotensors are employed. In the linearized theory we find expressions for the energy density of the 5 wave modes. The requirement that the modes have positive energy is then used to constrain the theory. In the fully non-linear theory we compute the total energy of an asymptotically flat spacetime. The resulting energy expression is modified by the presence of the aether due to the non-zero value of the unit vector at infinity and its 1/r falloff. The question of non-linear energy positivity is also discussed, but not resolved.

Constraining superluminal Einstein-\AE{}ther gravity through gravitational memory
Tensor displacement memory in Einstein-Aether gravity diverges at a critical angle when aether scalar or vector waves travel faster than tensor gravitational waves, motivating a conjecture excluding superluminal Einst...

Gravitational Memory in Generalized Proca Gravity
The displacement memory formula for Generalized Proca gravity is derived for a massive Lorentz-invariant branch and a massless Lorentz-violating branch, with the dispersive branch requiring a frequency-integrated treatment.
