Curve of particle in a gravitational plane wave pulse is not a geodesic curve

We consider a system of a gravitational wave colliding with a finite mass at rest. When the wave is at infinity it is a gravitational plane wave pulse with metric having a certain form. There is a limiting curve, where size and mass of the finite mass goes to zero, that is not a geodesic curve.
Nous étudions un système constitué d'une onde gravitationnelle entrant en collision avec une masse au repos. Quand l'onde est à l'infini, c'est une impulsion d'onde gravitationnelle plane avec métrique de forme donnée. Il existe une courbe limite non géodésique pour laquelle les dimensions et la masse de la masse finie tendent vers zéro.
Key words: Gravitational Wave; Lorentz Transformation; Geodesic Curve.
