Testing General Relativity on the Scales of Cosmology
arXiv:astro-ph/0410284 · doi:10.1142/9789812701688_0010
Abstract
The cosmological tests are tight enough now to show that the Friedmann-Lemaitre Lambda CDM cosmological model almost certainly is a useful approximation. This means general relativity theory passes significant tests of the extrapolation of some fifteen orders of magnitude from the length scales of the precision tests of gravity physics.
