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 کاملLensing of 21-cm fluctuations by primordial gravitational waves.
Weak-gravitational-lensing distortions to the intensity pattern of 21-cm radiation from the dark ages can be decomposed geometrically into curl and curl-free components. Lensing by primordial gravitational waves induces a curl component, while the contribution from lensing by density fluctuations is strongly suppressed. Angular fluctuations in the 21-cm background extend to very small angular s...
متن کاملPrimordial Gravitational Waves From Open Inflation
We calculate the spectrum of gravitational waves generated during inflation in open (Ω0 < 1) inflationary models. In such models an initial epoch of old inflation solves the horizon and flatness problems, and during this first epoch of inflation the quantum state of the graviton field rapidly approaches the Bunch-Davies vacuum. Then old inflation ends by the nucleation of a single bubble, insid...
متن کاملOn “Primordial magnetic seed field amplification by gravitational waves”
We consider the amplification of cosmological magnetic fields by gravity waves as it was recently presented in [1]. The latter study confined to infinitely conducting environments, arguing that on spatially flat Friedmann backgrounds the gravito-magnetic interaction proceeds always as if the universe were a perfect conductor. We explain why this is not the case and then re-examine the Maxwell-W...
متن کاملGravitational lensing by gravitational waves
Gravitational lensing by gravitational wave is considered. We notice that although final and initial direction of photons coincide, displacement between final and initial trajectories occurs. This displacement is calculated analytically for the plane gravitational wave pulse. Estimations for observations are discussed.
