Modified expansion rates in the early Universe prior to big bang nucleosynthesis are common in modified gravity theories, and can have a significant impact on the generation of dark matter, matter-antimatter asymmetry, primordial black holes and the primordial gravitational wave (PGW) spectrum. Here we study the PGW spectrum in modified gravity theories, in early Universe cosmology. In particular, we consider scalar-tensor and extradimensional scenarios, investigating the detection prospects in current and future GW observatories. For the scalar-tensor case, PGW could be potentially observed by laser interferometers operating in the high-frequency range, while for the extradimensional case they could be detected even at low frequencies with pulsar timing arrays. We find that data from the planned network of several GW detectors operating across various frequency ranges could be able to distinguish between various modified gravity scenarios.

  1. Leptogenesis with sub-electroweak-scale reheating temperature

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Leptogenesis remains viable for reheating temperatures below sphaleron freeze-out in three perturbative monomial-inflaton scenarios, with blue-tilted primordial GWs as a potential probe.

  2. Primordial Gravitational Waves from Phase Transitions during Reheating

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Phase transitions happening during reheating can produce gravitational-wave signals that are delayed, prolonged, and shifted in amplitude and frequency by orders of magnitude compared with standard cosmology.

  3. Generalized Uncertainty Principle mimicking dynamical Dark Energy: matter perturbations and gravitational wave data analysis

    gr-qc 2025-02 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a GUP-modified cosmology, matter fluctuations grow more slowly and the primordial gravitational wave spectrum is enhanced at high frequencies, leading to a claimed bound β ≲ 10^39.

  4. Power Law Plateau Inflation and Primary Gravitational Waves in the light of ACT

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Power-law plateau inflation can sit inside the 1 sigma region of ACT DR6, but the reheating bound from gravitational waves forces the total number of e-folds N_k below about 62.
