Abstract
The quasinormal mode of a gravitating and magnetized fluid in a spatially flat, isotropic and homogeneous cosmological background is derived in the presence of the fluid sources of anisotropic stress and of the entropic fluctuations of the plasma. The obtained gauge-invariant description involves a system of two coupled differential equations of which the physical content is analyzed in all the most relevant situations. The Cauchy problem of large-scale curvature perturbations during the radiation dominated stage of expansion can be neatly formulated, and its general solution is shown to depend on five initial data assigned when the relevant physical wavelengths are larger than the particle horizon. The consequences of this approach are explored.
