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…
Supermassive Black Hole Merger Rates: Uncertainties from Halo Merger Theory
Adrienne L. Erickcek, Marc Kamionkowski, Andrew J. Benson
The merger of two supermassive black holes is expected to produce a gravitational-wave signal detectable by the satellite LISA. The rate of supermassive-black-hole mergers is intim…
