Cosmological perturbations in generalised dark Lagrangians

James Edholm, Jonathan Pearson

We describe a new method to parameterise dark energy theories including massive gravity, elastic dark energy and tensor-metric theories. We first examine a framework to describe an…

Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: a roadmap

Leor Barack, Vitor Cardoso, Samaya Nissanke +203

The grand challenges of contemporary fundamental physics---dark matter, dark energy, vacuum energy, inflation and early universe cosmology, singularities and the hierarchy problem-…

Gravitational radiation in Infinite Derivative Gravity and connections to Effective Quantum Gravity

James Edholm

The Hulse-Taylor binary provides possibly the best test of GR to date. We find the modified quadrupole formula for Infinite Derivative Gravity (IDG). We extend the backreaction for…

Conditions for defocusing around more general metrics in Infinite Derivative Gravity

James Edholm

Infinite Derivative Gravity is able to resolve the Big Bang curvature singularity present in general relativity by using a simplifying ansatz. We show that it can also avoid the Ha…

Revealing Infinite Derivative Gravity's true potential: The weak-field limit around de Sitter backgrounds

James Edholm

General Relativity is known to produce singularities in the potential generated by a point source. Our universe can be modelled as a de Sitter (dS) metric and we show that ghost-fr…
