Testing general relativity with present and future astrophysical observations
One century after its formulation, Einstein's general relativity (GR) has made remarkable
predictions and turned out to be compatible with all experimental tests. Most of these tests …

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 …

Testing gravity using cosmic voids
We explore voids in dark matter and halo fields from simulations of Λ cold dark matter and
Hu–Sawicki f (R) models. In f (R) gravity, dark matter void abundances are greater than that …
