B-mode polarization induced by gravitational waves from kinks on
  infinite cosmic strings
  We investigate the effect of the stochastic gravitational wave (GW)
background produced by kinks on infinite cosmic strings, whose spectrum was
derived in our previous work, on the B-mode power spectrum of the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) anisotropy. We find that the B-mode polarization due
to kinks is comparable to that induced by the motion of the string network and
hence the contribution of GWs from kinks is important for estimating the B-mode
power spectrum originating from cosmic strings. If the tension of cosmic
strings \mu is large enough i.e., G\mu >~ 10^{-8}, B-mode polarization induced
by cosmic strings can be detected by future CMB experiments.
