Gravitational waves (GWs) have a great potential to probe cosmology. We review early universe sources that can lead to cosmological backgrounds of GWs. We begin by presenting definitions of GWs in flat space-time and in a cosmological…
The nonlinear theory of acoustic-gravity waves (AGWs) in the atmosphere is revisited with the effects of the Coriolis force. Previous theory in the literature [Phys. Scr. \textbf{90} (2015) 055001] is advanced. Starting from a set of fluid…
