We extend the formulation of spin 2 fields on Minkowski space which makes the action manifestly invariant under duality rotations to the case of interactions with external electric and magnetic sources by adding suitable potentials for the longitudinal and trace parts. In this framework, the string singularity of the linearized Taub-NUT solution is resolved into a Coulomb-like solution. Suitable surface charges to measure energy-momentum and angular momentum of both electric and magnetic type are constructed.

  1. Gravitational electric-magnetic duality at the light ring and quasinormal mode isospectrality in effective field theories

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Gravitational electric-magnetic duality at the light ring organizes and preserves quasinormal mode isospectrality in GR and selects duality-invariant higher-derivative corrections in effective field theories.

  2. Gravielectric and gravimagnetic fluxes in nutty black holes

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Misner strings carry singular gravielectric and gravimagnetic fluxes that connect horizons to infinity, explaining negative Komar masses as incoming field lines and showing the strings are massless empty tubes.
