Weak field gravitational wave solutions are investigated in Brans-Dicke (BD) theory in the presence of a cosmological constant. In this setting the background geometry is not flat but asymptotically de-Sitter. We investigate the linearised…

The standard $\Lambda$-CDM predicts a growth of structures which tends to be higher than the values of redshift space distortion (RSD) measurements, if the cosmological parameters are fixed by the CMB data. In this paper we point out that…

In the first paper in this series, a class of observables that generalized the gravitational wave memory effect were introduced and given the name "persistent gravitational wave observables." These observables are all nonlocal in time,…

We study the braneworld theory constructed by multi scalar fields. The model contains a smooth and infinitely large extra dimension, allowing the background fields propagating in it. We give a de Sitter solution for the four-dimensional…

A variety of mechanisms in the early Universe lead to the generation of gravitational waves (GWs). We introduce here a novel source of GWs generated by vacuum fluctuations after inflation. Given that gravitons are minimally coupled…

Primordial gravitational waves, after they enter the horizon and decay away, leave a residual displacement in test particles: a memory, in analogy with gravitational waves generated by astrophysical sources. The late-time distance between…

We firstly generalize the massive scalar propagator for planar gravitational waves propagating on Minkowski space obtained recently in Ref. [1]. We then use this propagator to study the response of a freely falling Unruh-DeWitt detector to…

The inspiral of binary systems in vacuum is controlled by the stress-energy of gravitational radiation and any other propagating degrees of freedom. For gravitational waves, the dominant contribution is characterized by an effective…

Some time ago it was pointed out that the presence of cosmological components could affect the propagation of gravitational waves (GW) beyond the usual cosmological redshift and that such effects might be observable in pulsar timing arrays.…

In this paper, we discuss the gravitational waves in the context of gauge theory gravity with a negative cosmological constant. The gauge theory gravity is a gravity theory under gauge formulation in the language of geometric algebra. In…

Gravitational-wave memory is a low-frequency, non-oscillatory signal that provides a promising probe of strong-field gravity. We present the first computation of memory from full inspiral--merger--ringdown waveforms in a theory beyond GR,…

One of the longstanding problems of modern gravitational physics is the detection of gravitational waves, for which the standard theoretical analysis relies upon the split of the space-time metric into a background metric plus perturbation.…
