dc.description.abstract | Various effects produced by vector perturbations (vortical peculiar velocity fields) of a flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker background are considered. In the presence of this type of perturbations, the polarization vector rotates. A formula giving the rotation angle is obtained and, then, it is used to prove that this angle depends on both the observation direction and the emission redshift. Hence, rotations are different for distinct quasars and also for the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation coming along different directions (from distinct points of the last scattering surface). As a result of these rotations, some correlations could appear in an initially random field of quasar polarization orientations. Furthermore, the polarization correlations of the CMB could undergo alterations. Quasars and CMB maps are both considered in this paper. In the case of linear vector modes with very large spatial scales, the maximum rotation angles appear to be of a few degrees for quasars (located at redshifts z<2.6) and a few tenths of degree for the CMB. These last rotations produce contributions to the B mode of the CMB polarization which are too small to be observed with PLANCK (in the near future); however, these contributions are large enough to be observed with the next generation of satellites, which are being designed to detect the small B mode produced by primordial gravitational waves. | |
