Abstract

The power spectrum of primordial tensor perturbations Pt\mathcal{P}_t increases rapidly in high frequency region if the spectral index nt>0n_t>0. It is shown that the amplitude of relic gravitational wave hth_t(5×1095\times10^9Hz) varies from 103610^{-36} to 102510^{-25} while ntn_t varies from 6.25×103-6.25\times 10^{-3} to 0.870.87. High frequency gravitational waves detector that is proposed by F.-Y. Li detects gravitational waves through observing the perturbed photon flux that is generated by interaction between the relic gravitational waves and electromagnetic system. It is shown that the perturbative photon flux Nx1N_x^1(5×1095\times10^9Hz) varies from 1.40×104s11.40\times10^{-4}\rm s^{-1} to 2.85×107s12.85\times10^{7}\rm s^{-1} while ntn_t varies from 6.25×103-6.25\times 10^{-3} to 0.870.87. Correspondingly, the ratio of the transverse perturbative photon flux Nx1N_x^1 to the background photon flux varies from 102810^{-28} to 101610^{-16}.
