Abstract

An analysis of cosmological models in spatially flat Friedmann Universe with cosmic gravitational wave background and zero Λ\Lambda-term is presented. The number of free parameters is equal to 5, they are σ8\sigma_8, nn, Ων\Omega_\nu, Ωb\Omega_b, and hh. The normalization of the spectrum of density perturbations on galaxy cluster abundance (σ8=0.52±0.04\sigma_8 = 0.52\pm 0.04) has been used to calculate numerically the value of the large scale CMB anisotropy (10\ell\simeq 10) and the relative contribution of cosmological gravitational waves T/S. Increasing Ων\Omega_\nu weaken the requirements to the value of T/S, however even for Ων0.4\Omega_\nu\le 0.4 the models with h+n1.5h+n\ge 1.5 suggest considerable abundance of gravitational waves: T/S>0.3{}^>_\sim 0.3. In models with Ων0.4\Omega_\nu\le 0.4 and scale-invariant spectrum of density perturbations (n=1n=1): T/S>10(h0.47){}^>_\sim 10(h-0.47). Minimization of the value T/S is possible only in the range of the red spectra (n<1n<1) and small hh (<0.6<0.6). It is shown that the models with T/S[0,3]\in [0, 3] admit both moderate red and blue spectra of density perturbations, n[0.9,1.2]n\in[0.9,1.2], with rather high abundance hot dark matter, Ων[0.2,0.4]\Omega_\nu\in [0.2,0.4]. Any condition, n<0.9n<0.9 or Ων<0.2\Omega_\nu<0.2, decreases the relative amplitude of the first acoustic peak for more than 30% in comparison with its hight in the standard CDM normalized by COBE data.
