Abstract
The cosmological background of higher order vector modes can be generated by the first order scalar perturbations. We investigate the second order and the third order vector modes in a radiation-dominated era systematically. The explicit expressions of two point functions 〈V

〉(n = 2,3) and corresponding power spectra are presented. In the case of a monochromatic primordial power spectrum, the second order vector modes do not exist. However, the third order vector modes can be generated by a monochromatic primordial power spectrum. And it is found that the third order vector modes sourced by the second order scalar perturbations dominate the two point function 〈V
