Faraday rotation, stochastic magnetic fields and CMB maps
Massimo Giovannini, Kerstin E. Kunze
The high- and low-frequency descriptions of the pre-decoupling plasma are deduced from the Vlasov-Landau treatment generalized to curved space-times and in the presence of the rela…
CMB polarization induced by stochastic magnetic fields
Massimo Giovannini, Kerstin E. Kunze
The complete calculation of the CMB polarization observables (i.e. E- and B-modes) is reported within the conventional CDM paradigm supplemented by a stochastic magnetic field.…
Generalized CMB initial conditions with pre-equality magnetic fields
Massimo Giovannini, Kerstin E. Kunze
The most general initial conditions of CMB anisotropies, compatible with the presence of pre-equality magnetic fields, are derived. When the plasma is composed by photons, baryons,…
Primordial magnetic fields and nonlinear electrodynamics
Kerstin E. Kunze
The creation of large scale magnetic fields is studied in an inflationary universe where electrodynamics is assumed to be nonlinear. After inflation ends electrodynamics becomes li…
Exact Inhomogeneous Cosmological Models
John D. Barrow, Kerstin E. Kunze
We present new exact inhomogeneous vacuum cosmological solutions of Einstein's equations. They provide new information about the nature of general cosmological solutions to Einstei…
