We point out that a pseudo-Newtonian interpretations of the $(1/3)$ factor in the Sachs-Wolfe effect, which relates the fluctuations in temperature and potential, $(\delta T/ T) = (1/ 3) \delta \Phi$, is not supported by the General…
A consequence of non-Gaussian perturbations on the Sachs-Wolfe effect is studied. For a particular power spectrum, predicted Sachs-Wolfe effects are calculated for two cases: Gaussian (random phase) configuration, and a specific kind of…
Using a 3+1 decomposition of spacetime, we derive a new formula to compute the gravitational light shifts as measured by two observers which are normal to the spacelike hypersurfaces defining the foliation. This formula is quite general and…
In this paper we address two points concerning the Sachs-Wolfe effect: (i) the gauge independence of the observable temperature anisotropy, and (ii) a gauge-invariant expression of the effect considering the most general situation of…
Deviations from the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) cosmological model in the form of density inhomogeneities induce observational effects on the light propagating through these fluctuations. Using a rigorously parametrized metric whose…
The (ordinary) Sachs-Wolfe effect relates primordial matter perturbations to the temperature variations $\delta T/T$ in the cosmic microwave background radiation; $\delta T/T$ can be observed in all directions around us. A standard but…
The Sachs-Wolfe temperature fluctuations produced by primordial density perturbations are proportional to the potential field \phi, which is a weighted integral over the density field \delta. Because of the central limit theorem, \phi can…
Gravitational waves are messengers carrying valuable information about their sources. For sources at cosmological distances, the waves will contain also the imprint left by the intervening matter. The situation is in close analogy with…
Cartan torsion contribution to Sachs-Wolfe effect in the inflationary phase of the Universe is discussed.From the COBE data of the microwave anisotropy is possible to compute the spin-density in the Universe as $10^{16}$ mks units.The…
We examine stochastic temperature fluctuations of the cosmic background radiation (CBR) arising via the Sachs-Wolfe effect from gravitational wave perturbations produced in the early universe. These temperature fluctuations are described by…
We present a new approach to the Sachs-Wolfe effect, which is based on the dynamics of photons in a space and time varying gravitational field. We consider the influence of plasma dispersion effects on photon propagation, and establish the…
The scattering of temperature anisotropy quadrupole by free electrons in galaxy clusters leads to a now well-known polarization signal in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations. Using multi-frequency polarization data, one can…
The integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect (ISW) can be an important factor in the generation of Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies on all scales, especially in a reionized curvature or lambda dominated universe. We present an analytic…
We present a coherent theoretical framework for computing gravitational lensing effects and redshift-space distortions in an inhomogeneous universe and investigate their impacts on galaxy two-point statistics. Adopting the linearized FRW…
The integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect describes how photons are gravitationally redshifted, producing anisotropies in the Cosmic Microwave Background. We study the inverse problem and show that primordial gravitational perturbations, in…
We study the redshift-space fluctuations induced by a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) via the Sachs-Wolfe effect. The redshift-space fluctuations can be encapsulated in a line-of-sight integral that is useful for studying…
In some scenarios, the peculiar gravitational potential of linear and mildly nonlinear structures depends on time and, as a result of this dependence, a late integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect appears. Here, an appropriate formalism is used…
The consistency of the results of measuring the gravitational force temperature dependence obtained by Shaw and Davy in 1923 and by the author in 2003 was shown. Such dependence is observed in the laboratory experiments, it does not…
The gravitational redshift formula is usually derived in the geometric optics approximation. In this note we consider an exact formulation of the problem in the Schwarzschild space-time, with the intention to clarify under what conditions…
The Sachs-Wolfe effect is known to produce large angular scale fluctuations in the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation (CMBR) due to gravitational potential fluctuations. We show how the angular correlation function of the CMBR can be…
