We solve the Laplace equation $Box h_{ij}=0$ describing the propagation of gravitational waves in an expanding background metric with a power law scale factor in the presence of a point mass in the weak field approximation (Newtonian McVittie background). We use boundary conditions at large distances from the mass corresponding to a standing spherical gravitational wave in an expanding background which is equivalent to a linear combination of an incoming and an outgoing propagating gravitational wave. We compare the solution with the corresponding solution in the absence of the point mass and show that the point mass increases the amplitude of the wave and also decreases its frequency (as observed by an observer at infinity) in accordance with gravitational time delay.

We study the tensorial modes of the two-fluid model, where one of this fluids has an equation of state $p = - rho/3$ (variable cosmological constant, cosmic string fluid, texture) or $p = - rho$ (cosmological constant), while the other fluid is an or
dinary matter (radiation, stiff matter, incoherent matter). In the first case, it is possible to have a closed Universe whose dynamics can be that of an open Universe providing alternative solutions for the age and horizon problems. This study of the gravitational waves is extended for all values of the effective curvature $k_{eff}=k-frac{8pi G}{3}rho_{0s}$, that is, positive, negative or zero, $k$ being the curvature of the spacelike section. In the second case, we restrict ourselves to a flat spatial section. The behaviour of gravitational waves have, in each case, very particular features, that can be reflected in the anisotropy spectrum of Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. We make also some considerations of these models as candidate to dark matter models.
We investigate analytically and numerically the orbits of spinning particles around black holes in the post Newtonian limit and in the presence of cosmic expansion. We show that orbits that are circular in the absence of spin, get deformed when the o
rbiting particle has spin. We show that the origin of this deformation is twofold: a. the background expansion rate which induces an attractive (repulsive) interaction due to the cosmic background fluid when the expansion is decelerating (accelerating) and b. a spin-orbit interaction which can be attractive or repulsive depending on the relative orientation between spin and orbital angular momentum and on the expansion rate.
In this paper, we discuss quantisation of cosmological tensor perturbations in the Kasner-de Sitter space-time as a model of (pre-)inflation. Quantisation in such an anisotropic background has been argued to be problematic based on the fact that the
initial Kasner singularity, where the spatial anisotropy blows up, causes divergences to the effective frequencies squared for the perturbations, which render the standard quantisation procedure relying on the existence of an adiabatic vacuum state inexecutable. Here, an essential aspect of the problem is that the ability in determining the quantum spectra of the fields is restricted. Without its knowledge, one cannot even choose physically favourable states like the Bunch-Davies vacuum in de Sitter. We here argue that this difficulty may be circumvented if only there is a period, even if temporal, after the singularity where certain adiabatic conditions for the fields are met and the standard procedure of second quantisation can be carried out within the framework of the WKB approximation. We demonstrate that our prescription for determining the quantum energy spectrum is useful in making physically meaningful predictions for the primordial gravitational waves in triaxially anisotropic Kasner-de Sitter backgrounds. We confirm that, on short wave-length scales, the resulting spectrum and directional distribution of the primordial gravitational waves are the same as de Sitter inflation, namely, scale invariant and isotropic.
A strong variable gravitational field of the very early Universe inevitably generates relic gravitational waves by amplifying their zero-point quantum oscillations. We begin our discussion by contrasting the concepts of relic gravitational waves and
inflationary `tensor modes. We explain and summarize the properties of relic gravitational waves that are needed to derive their effects on CMB temperature and polarization anisotropies. The radiation field is characterized by four invariants I, V, E, B. We reduce the radiative transfer equations to a single integral equation of Voltairre type and solve it analytically and numerically. We formulate the correlation functions C^{XX}_{ell} for X, X= T, E, B and derive their amplitudes, shapes and oscillatory features. Although all of our main conclusions are supported by exact numerical calculations, we obtain them, in effect, analytically by developing and using accurate approximations. We show that the TE correlation at lower ells must be negative (i.e. an anticorrelation), if it is caused by gravitational waves, and positive if it is caused by density perturbations. This difference in TE correlation may be a signature more valuable observationally than the lack or presence of the BB correlation, since the TE signal is about 100 times stronger than the expected BB signal. We discuss the detection by WMAP of the TE anticorrelation at ell approx 30 and show that such an anticorrelation is possible only in the presence of a significant amount of relic gravitational waves (within the framework of all other common assumptions). We propose models containing considerable amounts of relic gravitational waves that are consistent with the measured TT, TE and EE correlations.
Using the Bondi-Sachs formalism, the problem of a gravitational wave source surrounded by a spherical dust shell is considered. Using linearized perturbation theory, the geometry is found in the regions: in the shell, exterior to the shell, and inter
ior to the shell. It is found that the dust shell causes the gravitational wave to be modified both in magnitude and phase, but without any energy being transferred to or from the dust.
