Description
We consider gravitational radiation produced by a time changing matter source in de Sitter spacetime. A Killing horizon is used as a generalization of the conformal boundary used in the radiation theory in Minkowski spacetime. We derived the expression for the energy of the radiation passing through the horizon. Our result takes the form of a generalized quadrupole formula expressed in terms of the mass and pressure quadrupole moments and is written explicitly up to the first order in $\sqrt{\Lambda}$. The zeroth order term recovers the famous Einstein’s quadrupole formula obtained for the perturbed Minkowski spacetime, whereas the first order term is a new correction.
