Cosmological tests of modified gravity
K Koyama - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We review recent progress in the construction of modified gravity models as alternatives to
dark energy as well as the development of cosmological tests of gravity. Einstein's theory of …

Accurate halo-model matter power spectra with dark energy, massive neutrinos and modified gravitational forces
We present an accurate non-linear matter power spectrum prediction scheme for a variety of
extensions to the standard cosmological paradigm, which uses the tuned halo model …

Testing screened modified gravity
P Brax, S Casas, H Desmond, B Elder - Universe, 2021 - mdpi.com
Long range scalar fields with a coupling to matter appear to violate known bounds on
gravitation in the solar system and the laboratory. This is evaded thanks to screening …

Novel Probes Project: Tests of gravity on astrophysical scales
The Novel Probes Project, an initiative to advance the field of astrophysical tests of the dark
sector by creating a forum that connects observers and theorists, is introduced. This review …

Towards testing the theory of gravity with DESI: summary statistics, model predictions and future simulation requirements
Shortly after its discovery, General Relativity (GR) was applied to predict the behavior of our
Universe on the largest scales, and later became the foundation of modern cosmology. Its …

MICROSCOPE's view at gravitation
J Bergé - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
The weak equivalence principle (WEP) is the cornerstone of general relativity (GR). Testing
it is thus a natural way to confront GR to experiments, which has been pursued for four …
