Abstract
We present analytic integral solutions for the second-order induced gravitational waves (GWs). After presenting all the possible second-order source terms, we calculate explicitly the solutions for the GWs induced by the linear scalar and tensor perturbations during matter- and radiation-dominated epochs.
