This is a comment on the recent paper by G. S. Adkins and J. McDonnell ``Orbital precession due to central-force perturbations published in Phys. Rev. D75 (2007), 082001 [arXiv:gr-qc/0702015]. We show that the main result of this paper, the formula for the precession of Keplerian orbits induced by central-force perturbations, can be obtained very simply by the use of Hamiltons vector.

We consider the equation of motion of a charged particle or a charged compact object in curved space-time, under the reaction of electromagnetic radiation and also consider a physical situation such that the charged particle or compact object emits g
ravitational radiation, thereby gravitational radiation reaction also acts on it. We investigate the effect of this metric perturbation i.e. the gravitational radiation on the electromagnetic self-force. We show that, besides the interaction terms derived by P. Zimmerman and E. Poisson (Phys. Rev. D 90, 084030, 2014), additional perturbative terms are generated, which are linear in metric perturbation and are generated due to perturbation of the electromagnetic self-force by the metric perturbation. We discuss the conditions of significance of these perturbative terms and also the interaction terms with respect to the gravitational self-force in various astrophysical and cosmological cases ; such as the motion of charged particles around black holes, some extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) involving sufficiently accelerated motion of charged stars (specially neutron stars) or charged stellar mass black holes around supermassive black holes, and motion of charged particles around charged primordial black holes formed in the early Universe etc.. We find that in some astrophysical and cosmological cases these perturbative terms can have significant effect in comparison with the gravitational radiation-reaction term.
Detailed measurements of the cosmic microwave background indicate the large-scale homogeneity of the universe. On very small scales, we observe however inhomogeneities such as galaxies, stars, planets and ourselves. In the context of hot Big-Bang cos
mology, these inhomogeneities are often explained as the remains of quantum fluctuations at very early times, enlarged to observable scales through the process of inflation. In this dissertation, I examine two important questions surrounding this scenario: a) How do inherently quantal fluctuations transition to the observed inhomogeneities, which behave classically? ; and b) If the initial state of the universe was symmetric, how can the currently observed state? This dissertation is organized in three parts. Part one first introduces the slow-roll inflation model and then discusses the behavior of small (scalar) perturbations to this model. The second part investigates various answers provided to the questions above, starting with some general observations on the classical limit of quantum mechanics with special attention given to the inverted harmonic oscillator. The formalisms of `squeezing and decoherence are discussed and weak points are pointed out. In the final part, I examine in detail the pilot-wave approach to the problem, discussing in detail the classical limit of the theory and how pilot-wave theory addresses both questions above. Numerical results for pilot-wave trajectories are presented, illustrating directly the classical limit.
Working by analogy, we use the description of light fluctuations due to random collisions of the radiating atoms to figure out why the reduction of the coherence for light propagating a cosmological distance in the fluctuating background space is neg
ligibly small to be observed by the stellar interferometry.
By making a suitable generalization of the Starobinsky stochastic inflation, we propose a classical phase space formulation of stochastic inflation which may be used for a quantitative study of decoherence of cosmological perturbations during inflati
on. The precise knowledge of how much cosmological perturbations have decohered is essential to the understanding of acoustic oscillations of cosmological microwave background (CMB) photons. In order to show how the method works, we provide the relevant equations for a self-interacting inflaton field. For pedagogical reasons and to provide a link to the field theoretical case, we consider the quantum stochastic harmonic oscillator.
Backgrounds are pervasive in almost every application of general relativity. Here we consider the Lagrangian formulation of general relativity for large perturbations with respect to a curved background spacetime. We show that Noethers theorem combin
ed with Belinfantes symmetrization method applied to the group of displacements provide a conserved vector, a superpotential and a energy-momentum that are independent of any divergence added to the Hilbert Lagrangian of the perturbations. The energy-momentum is symmetrical and divergenceless only on backgrounds that are Einstein spaces in the sense of A.Z.Petrov.
