Solar System Constraints on a Cosmologically Viable $f(R)$ Theory

Abstract

Recently, a model $f(R)$ theory is proposed \cite{recent} which is cosmologically viable and distinguishable from $\Lambda$CDM. We use chameleon mechanism to investigate viability of the model in terms of Solar System experiments.
