1305.4654 (M. O'Dwyer et al.)

$γ$-Gravity: Steepness Control    [PDF]

M. O'Dwyer, S. E. Joras, I. Waga
We investigate a simple generalization of the metric exponential $f(R)$ gravity theory that is cosmologically viable and compatible with solar system tests of gravity. We show that, as compared to other viable $f(R)$ theories, its steep dependence on the Ricci scalar $R$ facilitates agreement with structure constraints and it gives rise to an effective dark energy that can be differentiated from a cosmological constant with future surveys.
