Higher-order gravity and the cosmological background of gravitational waves

S. Capozziello, M. De Laurentis, M. Francaviglia

The cosmological background of gravitational waves can be tuned by the higher-order corrections to the gravitational Lagrangian. In particular, it can be shown that assuming $R^{1+…
