The gauge dependence of the scalar induced gravitational waves (SIGWs) generated at the second order imposes a challenge to the discussion of the secondary gravitational waves generated by scalar perturbations. We provide a general formula that is valid in any gauge for the calculation of SIGWs and the relationship for SIGWs calculated in various gauges under the coordinate transformation. The formula relating SIGWs in the Newtonian gauge to other gauges is used to calculate SIGWs in six different gauges. We find that the Newtonian gauge, the uniform curvature gauge, the synchronous gauge and the uniform expansion gauge yield the same result for the energy density of SIGWs. We also identify and eliminate the pure gauge modes that exist in the synchronous gauge. In the total matter gauge and the comoving orthogonal gauge, the energy density of SIGWs increases as $eta^2$. While in the uniform density gauge, the energy density of SIGWs increases as $eta^6$.

We study gauge (in)dependence of the gravitational waves (GWs) induced from curvature perturbations. For the GWs produced in a radiation-dominated era, we find that the observable (late-time) GWs in the TT gauge and in the Newtonian gauge are the sam e in contrast to a claim in the literature. We also mention the interpretation of the gauge dependence of the tensor perturbations which appears in the context of the induced GWs.
We study the scalar induced tensor perturbations at second order during matter domination in seven different gauges. Considering the obtained solution from the Newtonian gauge, we use the gauge transformation law of the scalar induced tensor perturba tion to derive the solution in six other gauges. After identifying and eliminating the residual gauge modes in the synchronous and comoving orthogonal gauges, we obtain the same analytical results of the kernel function $I_{chi}$ for these two gauges as those obtained from the gauge transformation. For the scalar induced gravitational waves oscillating as $sin x$ and $cos x$, we find that $rho_{text{GW}}propto a^{-4}$, and $Omega_{text{GW}}propto 1/a$ in the matter dominated era, so the oscillating gravitational waves behave as radiation.
The scalar induced gravitational waves (SIGWs) is a useful tool to probe the physics in the early universe. To study inflationary models with this tool, we need to know how the waveform of SIGWs is related to the shape of the scalar power spectrum. W e propose two parameterizations to approximate the scalar power spectrum with either a sharp or a broad spike at small scales, and then use these two parameterizations to study the relation between the shapes of $Omega_{GW}$ and the scalar power spectrum. We find that the waveform of SIGWs has a similar shape to the power spectrum. Away from the peak of the spike, the frequency relation $Omega_{GW}(k)sim mathcal{P}_zeta^2(k)$ holds independent of the functional form of the scalar power spectrum. We also give a physical explanation for this general relationship. The general relation is useful for determining the scalar power spectrum and probing inflationary physics with the waveform of SIGWs.

In this talk I review recent progresses in the detection of scalar gravitational waves. Furthermore, in the framework of the Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory, I compute the signal to noise ratio for a resonant mass detector of spherical shape and for binary sources and collapsing stars. Finally I compare these results with those obtained from laser interferometers and from Einsteinian gravity.
An additional scalar degree of freedom for a gravitational wave is often predicted in theories of gravity beyond general relativity and can be used for a model-agnostic test of gravity. In this letter, we report the first direct search for the scalar -tensor mixed polarization modes of gravitational waves from compact binaries in a strong regime of gravity by analyzing the data of GW170814 and GW170817, which are the merger events of binary black holes and binary neutron stars, respectively. Consequently, we obtain the constraints on the ratio of scalar-mode amplitude to tensor-mode amplitude: $lesssim 0.18$ for GW170814 and $lesssim 0.069$ for GW170817, which are the strongest constraints obtained so far on the presence of the scalar polarization in a strong regime of gravity.
