String cosmology and relic gravitational radiaton

String theory counterparts to Einstein's gravity, cosmology and inflation are described. A very tight upper bound on the Cosmic Gravitational Radiation Background (CGRB) of standard inflation is shown to be evaded in string cosmology, while an interesting signal in the phenomenologically intere...

Sumario:String theory counterparts to Einstein's gravity, cosmology and inflation are described. A very tight upper bound on the Cosmic Gravitational Radiation Background (CGRB) of standard inflation is shown to be evaded in string cosmology, while an interesting signal in the phenomenologically interesting frequency range is all but excluded. The generic features of such a stringy CGRB are presented.
