Abstract:We present a systematic treatment of the linear theory of scalar gravitational perturbations of various matter (including baryons, cold dark matter, photons, massless neutrinos, and massive neutrino) for the Hat, open and close universes, concentrating on the treatment of the massive neutrino component which has been either ignored or approximated crudely for the nonBat universe in previous literatures.
