Primordial gravitational waves and cosmology.
The observation of primordial gravitational waves could provide a new and unique window on the earliest moments in the history of the universe and on possible new physics at energies many orders of magnitude beyond those accessible at particle accelerators. Such waves might be detectable soon, in current or planned satellite experiments that will probe for characteristic imprints in the polariz...
متن کاملGravitational waves in a stringlike fluid cosmology
The coupling of a stringlike fluid with ordinary matter and gravity may lead to a closed Universe with the dynamic of an open one. This can provide an alternative solution for the age and horizon problems. A study of density perturbations of the stringlike fluid indicates the existence of instabilities in the small wavelength limit when it is employed a hydrodynamic approach. Here, we extend th...
متن کاملUltra-high precision cosmology from gravitational waves
We show that the Big Bang Observer (BBO), a proposed space-based gravitational-wave (GW) detector, would provide ultra-precise measurements of cosmological parameters. By detecting ∼ 3 × 10 compact-star binaries, and utilizing them as standard sirens, BBO would determine the Hubble constant to ∼ 0.1%, and the dark energy parameters w0 and wa to ∼ 0.01 and ∼ 0.1, respectively. BBO’s dark-energy ...
متن کاملRelic Gravitational Waves from String Cosmology
A large class of string-cosmology backgrounds leads to a spectrum of relic stochastic gravitational waves, strongly tilted towards high frequencies, and characterized by two basic parameters of the cosmological model. We estimate the required sensitivity for detection of the predicted gravitational radiation and show that a region of our parameter space is within reach for some of the planned g...
متن کاملPhysics, Astrophysics and Cosmology with Gravitational Waves
Gravitational wave detectors are already operating at interesting sensitivity levels, and they have an upgrade path that should result in secure detections by 2014. We review the physics of gravitational waves, how they interact with detectors (bars and interferometers), and how these detectors operate. We study the most likely sources of gravitational waves and review the data analysis methods...
