Exploration of Parameters in f(R,T) Gravity and Comparison with Type Ia Supernovae Data
Vincent R. Siggia, Eric D. Carlson, P. Lee Pryor
The expansion of the Universe in gravity is studied. We consider functions of the form where . We find that for all models with , the Universe tr…
Argument for the radiation-dominated behavior of matter fields in the preinflationary era
Taylor M. Ordines, Eric D. Carlson
We investigate the leading-order behavior of matter fields in the preinflationary era using the semiclassical approximation. Many inflationary models assume without supporting argu…
Nuclear Limits on Non-Minimally Coupled Gravity
Sarah B. Fisher, Eric D. Carlson
We explore alternate theories of gravity where the gravitational term in the Lagrangian is replaced by a function and the matter Lagrangian is multiplied b…
Semiclassical predictions regarding a pre-inflationary era and its effects on the power spectrum
Paul R. Anderson, Eric D. Carlson, Taylor M. Ordines +1
An investigation is undertaken into the properties and effects of a preinflationary era during at least part of which semiclassical gravity was valid. It is argued that if the Univ…
Response to Comment on "Reexamining Gravity''
Sarah B. Fisher, Eric D. Carlson
Harko and Moraes claim that in gravity with , the term cannot be incorporated in the matter Lagrangian . A careful examination o…
Reexamining gravity
Sarah B. Fisher, Eric D. Carlson
We study gravity, in which the curvature appearing in the gravitational Lagrangian is replaced by an arbitrary function of the curvature and the trace of the stres…
