Cosmological and lunar laser ranging constraints on evolving dark energy in a nonminimally coupled curvature-matter gravity model
Riccardo March, Miguel Barroso Varela, Orfeu Bertolami +3
We analyze a cosmological solution to the field equations of a modified gravity model where curvature and matter are nonminimally coupled. The current Universe's accelerated expans…

Equivalence principle violation in nonminimally coupled gravity and constraints from Lunar Laser Ranging
Riccardo March, Orfeu Bertolami, Marco Muccino +1
We analyze the dynamics of the Sun-Earth-Moon system in the context of a particular class of theories of gravity where curvature and matter are nonminimally coupled (NMC). These th…
