We examine gravitational wave memory in the case where sources and detector are in an expanding cosmology. For simplicity, we treat the case where the cosmology is de Sitter spacetime, and discuss the possibility of generalizing our results…
Linearized gravitational waves in de Sitter space-time are analyzed in detail to obtain guidance for constructing the theory of gravitational radiation in presence of a positive cosmological constant in full, nonlinear general relativity.…
Gravitational radiation plays an important role in astrophysics. Based on the fact that our universe is expanding, the gravitational radiation when a positive cosmological constant is presented has been studied along with two different ways…
We argue that massless gravitons in all even dimensional de Sitter (dS) spacetimes higher than two admit a linear memory effect arising from their propagation inside the null cone. Assume that gravitational waves (GWs) are being generated…
Gravitational-wave memory effects are identified by their distinctive effects on families of freely falling observers: after a burst of waves pass by their locations, memory effects can cause lasting relative displacements of the observers.…

There exist gravitational memory effects in Brans-Dicke theory. They are closely related to the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs symmetries living on the null infinity in an isolated system. By studying the asymptotically flat spacetime in Brans-Dicke…
We study the effect of a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ on the propagation and detection of gravitational waves. To this purpose we investigate the linearised Einstein's equations with terms up to linear order in $\Lambda$ in a de Sitter…

The construction of exact linearized solutions to the Einstein equations within the Bondi-Sachs formalism is extended to the case of linearization about de Sitter spacetime. The gravitational wave field measured by distant observers is…
The gravitational memory effects of Chern-Simons modified gravity are considered in the asymptotically flat spacetime. If the Chern-Simons scalar does not directly couple with the ordinary matter fields, there are also displacement, spin…
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 treat a model in which tensor perturbations of de~Sitter spacetime, represented as a spatially flat model, are modified by the effects of the vacuum fluctuations of a massless conformally invariant field, such as the electromagnetic…
We study gravitational radiation for a positive value of the cosmological constant $\Lambda$. We rely on two battle-tested procedures: (i) We start from the same null coordinate system used by Bondi and Sachs for $\Lambda = 0$, but,…
Gravitational memory, which describes the permanent shift in the strain after the passage of gravitational waves, is directly related to Weinberg's soft graviton theorems and the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) symmetry group of asymptotically…
We derive the asymptotic solutions for vacuum spacetimes with non-zero cosmological constant $\Lambda$, using the Newman-Penrose formalism. Our approach is based exclusively on the physical spacetime, i.e. we do not explicitly deal with…
In this note we investigate outcomes of a symplectic formula for the gravitational waves charges in the general relativity linearized around the de Sitter spacetime. We derive their explicit form at {\it scri} in the Bondi frame, compare…
Gravitational-wave (GW) memory effects produce permanent shifts in the GW strain and its time integrals after the passage of a burst of GWs. Their presence is closely tied to symmetries of asymptotically flat spacetimes and fluxes of…
