Nonminimally coupled curvature-matter gravity models and Solar System constraints
Riccardo March, Orfeu Bertolami, Jorge Páramos +1
We discuss constraints to some nonminimally (NMC) coupled curvature-matter models of gravity by means of Solar System experiments. First we discuss a NMC gravity model which consti…
Baryogenesis in Nonminimally Coupled Theories
M. P. L. P. Ramos, J. Páramos
We generalize the mechanism for gravitational baryogensis in the context of theories of gravity, including a nonminimal coupling between curvature and matter. In these model…
Using a non-minimal coupling between matter and curvature to sequester the Cosmological Constant
Orfeu Bertolami, Jorge Páramos
We present a novel mechanism for generating a Cosmological Constant and suitably sequestering the vacuum contribution to it, so that the eponymous Cosmological Constant problem is…
Visible and Dark Matter Profiles in a Non-Minimally Coupled Model
Aníbal Silva, Jorge Páramos
A previous work found that a nonminimally coupled theory of gravity can, under appropriate conditions, give rise to an additional contribution to the field equations interpreted as…
Cosmological dynamics of a class of non-minimally coupled models of gravity
R. P. L. Azevedo, J. Páramos
In this work a new non-minimally coupled model is presented, where a generic function of the scalar curvature factors the usual Einstein-Hilbert action functional, motivated…
The 1/c expansion of nonminimally coupled curvature-matter gravity model and constraints from planetary precession
Riccardo March, Jorge Páramos, Orfeu Bertolami +1
The effects of a nonminimally coupled curvature-matter model of gravity on a perturbed Minkowski metric are presented. The action functional of the model involves two functions $f^…
