Torsion, an alternative to dark matter?
arXiv:1104.0160 · doi:10.1007/s10714-011-1222-6
Abstract
We confront Einstein-Cartan's theory with the Hubble diagram. An affirmative answer to the question in the title is compatible with today's supernovae data.
14 pp, 3 figures. Version 2 matches the version published in Gen. Rel. Grav., references added. Version 3 corrects a factor 3 in Cartan's equations to become 2
