A Hemispherical Power Asymmetry from Inflation
Adrienne L. Erickcek, Marc Kamionkowski, Sean M. Carroll
Measurements of CMB temperature fluctuations by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) indicate that the fluctuation amplitude in one half of the sky differs from the ampl…
Solar System constraints to general f(R) gravity
Takeshi Chiba, Tristan L. Smith, Adrienne L. Erickcek
It has been proposed that cosmic acceleration or inflation can be driven by replacing the Einstein-Hilbert action of general relativity with a function f(R) of the Ricci scalar R.…
Solar System tests DO rule out 1/R gravity
Adrienne L. Erickcek, Tristan L. Smith, Marc Kamionkowski
Shortly after the addition of a 1/R term to the Einstein-Hilbert action was proposed as a solution to the cosmic-acceleration puzzle, Chiba showed that such a theory violates Solar…
