The Golden Oldies series of the journal General Relativity and Gravitation reprints important papers in general relativity theory that were published 30 or more years ago and are either hard to get hold of, or were originally printed in a language other than English.

In 2022, we celebrate Rai Weiss’ 90th birthday and the 50th anniversary of his original GW detector design study with a republication of one of the most significant papers in the Golden Oldies series:
