Beyond the cosmological standard model

A Joyce, B Jain, J Khoury, M Trodden - Physics Reports, 2015 - Elsevier
After a decade and a half of research motivated by the accelerating universe, theory and
experiment have reached a certain level of maturity. The development of theoretical models …

[HTML][HTML] Massive gravity

C de Rham - Living reviews in relativity, 2014 - Springer
We review recent progress in massive gravity. We start by showing how different theories of
massive gravity emerge from a higher-dimensional theory of general relativity, leading to the …

Theoretical aspects of massive gravity

K Hinterbichler - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2012 - APS
Massive gravity has seen a resurgence of interest due to recent progress which has
overcome its traditional problems, yielding an avenue for addressing important open …

Healthy theories beyond Horndeski

J Gleyzes, D Langlois, F Piazza, F Vernizzi - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2014 - arxiv.org
We introduce a new class of scalar-tensor theories that extend Horndeski, or" generalized
galileon", models. Despite possessing equations of motion of higher order in derivatives, we …

Bimetric gravity from ghost-free massive gravity

SF Hassan, RA Rosen - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract Generically, non-linear bimetric theories of gravity suffer from the same Boulware-
Deser ghost instability as non-linear theories of massive gravity. However, recently …

Exploring gravitational theories beyond Horndeski

J Gleyzes, D Langlois, F Piazza… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We have recently proposed a new class of gravitational scalar-tensor theories free from
Ostrogradski instabilities, in ref.[1]. As they generalize Horndeski theories, or" generalized" …

Observation of the associated production of a top quark and a Z boson in pp collisions at = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector

G Aad, B Abbott, DC Abbott, A Abed Abud… - Journal of High Energy …, 2020 - Springer
A bstract Single top-quark production in association with a Z boson, where the Z boson
decays to a pair of charged leptons, is measured in the trilepton channel. The proton-proton …

Ghost-free massive gravity with a general reference metric

SF Hassan, RA Rosen, A Schmidt-May - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract Theories of massive gravity inevitably include an auxiliary reference metric.
Generically, they also contain an inconsistency known as the Boulware-Deser ghost …

Confirmation of the secondary constraint and absence of ghost in massive gravity and bimetric gravity

SF Hassan, RA Rosen - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2012 - Springer
A bstract In massive gravity and in bimetric theories of gravity, two constraints are needed to
eliminate the two phase-space degrees of freedom of the Boulware-Deser ghost. For …

Black hole based tests of general relativity

K Yagi, LC Stein - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
General relativity has passed all solar system experiments and neutron star based tests,
such as binary pulsar observations, with flying colors. A more exotic arena for testing …
