Propagation of transverse electromagnetic waves with gravitational perturbations in an isotropic universe

  • 1. U.I. Lenin State Univ., Kazan

Description

This paper considers the combined behavior of gravitational and electromagnetic perturbations in the radiation-dominated plasma of an isotropic universe. It is shown that transverse electromagnetic waves and vector and tensor gravitational perturbations are independent of one another. The propagation of transverse electromagnetic waves during the lepton and radiation-dominated phases is determined. It is shown that the gravitational perturbations help to excite longitudinal electromagnetic fields in the radiation-dominated plasma
