We consider the amplification of cosmological magnetic fields by gravitational waves as it was recently presented in [gr-qc/0503006]. That study confined to infinitely conductive environments, arguing that on spatially flat Friedmann…
We discuss how gravitational waves could amplify seed magnetic fields to strengths capable of supporting the galactic dynamo. We consider the interaction of a weak magnetic field with gravity wave distortions in almost FRW cosmologies and…
Using second-order gauge-invariant perturbation theory, a self-consistent framework describing the non-linear coupling between gravitational waves and a large-scale homogeneous magnetic field is presented. It is shown how this coupling may…
We numerically study the interaction of inflation-produced magnetic fields with gravitational waves, both of which originate from quantum fluctuations during inflation. The resonance between the magnetic field perturbations and the…
The energy momentum tensor of a magnetic field always contains a spin-2 component in its anisotropic stress and therefore generates gravitational waves. It has been argued in the literature (Caprini & Durrer \cite{CD}) that this…
In their recent paper ``Faraday rotation of the cosmic microwave background polarization by a stochastic magnetic field'', Kosowsky et al. Phys.Rev. D71, 043006 (2005) have commented about our paper [C.Caprini and R.Durrer, Phys. Rev. D65,…
It is shown that the amplification of a light beam by gravitational waves in scalar-tensor theories of gravity is a first order effect in the wave amplitudes. In general relativity, instead, the effect is only of second order.
Inflation is known to produce both gravitational waves and seed magnetic fields on scales well beyond the size of the horizon. The general relativistic interaction between these two sources at the end of inflation showed a significant…
The inflationary production of magnetic field seeds for galaxies is discussed. The analysis is carried out by writing the wave equation of the electromagnetic field in curved spacetimes. The conformal invariance is broken by taking into…
Magnetized high energy density physics offers new opportunities for observing magnetic field-related physics for the first time in the laser-plasma context. We focus on one such phenomenon, which is the ability of a laser-irradiated…
The paper previously submitted under this title is incorrect in that it drastically overestimates the cumulative deflection due to a gravitational wave (GW) background. Avi Loeb gives a simple argument that there can be no $(D\omega)^{1/2}$…
In realistic model-building, spinor fields with various masses are present. During inflation, spinor field may induce gravitational waves as a second order effect. In this paper, we calculate the contribution of single massive spinor field…
We investigate the influence of cosmic magnetic fields on gravitational wave perturbations, and find exact solutions on large scales. We show that a large-scale magnetic field can generate large-scale non-decaying gravitational waves. In…
We provide comments on the article by Shannon et al. (Sep 2015) entitled "Gravitational waves from binary supermassive black holes missing in pulsar observations". The purpose of this letter is to address several misconceptions of the…
Are giant flares in magnetars viable sources of gravitational radiation? Few theoretical studies have been concerned with this problem, with the small number using either highly idealized models or assuming a magnetic field orders of…
We provide calculations and theoretical arguments supporting the emission of electromagnetic radiation from charged particles accelerated by gravitational waves (GWs). These waves have significant indirect evidence to support their…
Following some ideas in the Landau book, some corrections about errors in the old literature on scalar gravitational waves are given and discussed. Even if such errors can be considered not important from the point of view of observations,…
The important issue of the magnetic component of gravitational waves (GWs) has been considered in various papers in the literature. From such analyses, it resulted that such a magnetic component becomes particularly important in the high…
Gravitational wave production induces a strong constraint on the amplitude of a primordial magnetic field. It has been shown that the nucleosynthesis bound for a stochastic gravitational wave background implies that causally generated…
We consider the possibility of generation of the seeds of primordial magnetic field on inflation and show that the effect of the back reaction of this field can be very important. Assuming that back reaction does not spoil inflation we find…
