Constraining gravity with the decay rate of cosmological gravitational potential

Xinyi Zhao, Pengjie Zhang, Fuyu Dong

A key task in cosmology is to test the validity of general relativity (GR) at cosmological scales and, therefore, to distinguish between dark energy and modified gravity (MG) as th…
