Prior to recombination photons, electrons, and atomic nuclei rapidly scattered and behaved, almost, like a single tightly-coupled photon-baryon plasma. We investigate here the accuracy of the tight-coupling approximation commonly used to…
We present a systematic treatment of the linear theory of scalar gravitational perturbations in the synchronous gauge and the conformal Newtonian (or longitudinal) gauge. We first derive the transformation law relating the two gauges. We…
In the curvaton scenario, primordial curvature perturbations are produced by a second field that is sub-dominant during inflation. Depending on how the curvaton decays [possibly producing baryon number, lepton number, or cold dark matter…
We compute second-order quantum corrections, as quantum dispersions and correlations, to a cosmological model coupling a single scalar perturbation mode to a bouncing background within Loop Quantum Cosmology (LQC). Using an effective…
Future lensing surveys will be nearly full-sky and reach an unprecedented depth, probing scales closer and closer to the Hubble radius. This motivates the study of the cosmic shear beyond the small-angle approximation and including general…
Recently a new approach in constructing the conserved charges in cosmological Einstein's gravity was given. In this new formulation, instead of using the explicit form of the field equations a covariantly conserved rank four tensor was…
We present a systematic study of the 2nd order scalar, vector and tensor metric perturbations in the Einstein-de Sitter Universe in synchronous coordinates. For the scalar-scalar coupling between 1st order perturbations, we decompose the…
We show that dark matter annihilation around the time of recombination can lead to growing ionization fraction perturbations, that track the linear collapse of matter over-densities. This amplifies small scale cosmological perturbations to…
The second order perturbations in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe filled with a perfect fluid are completely formulated in the gauge invariant manner without any gauge fixing. All components of the Einstein equations are derived…
Constraints on cosmological parameters from large-scale structure have traditionally been obtained from two-point statistics. However, non-linear structure formation renders these statistics insufficient in capturing the full information…
We present the growing mode solutions of cosmological perturbations to the second order in the matter dominated era. We also present several gauge-invariant combinations of perturbation variables to the second order in most general fluid…
After an introduction to the problem of cosmological structure formation, we develop gauge invariant cosmological perturbation theory. We derive the first order perturbation equations of Einstein's equations and energy momentum…
It is shown that for a higher weak isospin symmetry, $SU(P)_L$ with $P\geq 3$, the baryon minus lepton charge $B-L$ neither commutes nor closes algebraically with $SU(P)_L$ similar to the electric charge $Q$, which all lead to a…
The measurement of Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations from galaxy surveys is well known to be a robust and powerful tool to constrain dark energy. This method relies on the knowledge of the size of the acoustic horizon at radiation drag derived…
The second order perturbation calculations for gravity wave and Einstein equation for space time and matter are presented for the FRW metric cosmological model. While exact equations are found, suitable approximations are made to obtain…
The radiative induction of the CPT and Lorentz violating Chern-Simons (CS) term is reassessed. The massless and massive models are studied. Special attention is given to the preservation of gauge symmetry at higher orders in the background…
We present a method for constructing gauge-invariant cosmological perturbations which are gauge-invariant up to second order. As an example we give the gauge-invariant definition of the second-order curvature perturbation on uniform density…
Primordial Gravitational waves leave polarization imprints on the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). In this article, we investigate polarization bispectrum, which is also referred to as the B-mode auto bispectrum, due to a matter bounce…
Generic models for the origin of structure predict a spectrum of initial fluctuations with a mixture of adiabatic and isocurvature perturbations. Using the observed anisotropies of the cosmic microwave backgound, the matter power spectra…
We calculate the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropy bispectrum on large angular scales in the absence of primordial non-Gaussianities, assuming exact matter dominance and extending at second order the classic Sachs-Wolfe result \delta…
