A systematic approach to generalisations of General Relativity and their cosmological implications

L Heisenberg - Physics Reports, 2019 - Elsevier
A century ago, Einstein formulated his elegant and elaborate theory of General Relativity,
which has so far withstood a multitude of empirical tests with remarkable success …

Beyond the cosmological standard model

A Joyce, B Jain, J Khoury, M Trodden - Physics Reports, 2015 - Elsevier

[HTML][HTML] Massive gravity

C de Rham - Living reviews in relativity, 2014 - Springer
We review recent progress in massive gravity. We start by showing how different theories of
massive gravity emerge from a higher-dimensional theory of general relativity, leading to the …

Testing general relativity with present and future astrophysical observations

E Berti, E Barausse, V Cardoso… - … and Quantum Gravity, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
One century after its formulation, Einstein's general relativity (GR) has made remarkable
predictions and turned out to be compatible with all experimental tests. Most of these tests …

Dark energy in light of multi-messenger gravitational-wave astronomy

JM Ezquiaga, M Zumalacárregui - Frontiers in Astronomy and Space …, 2018 - frontiersin.org
Gravitational waves (GWs) provide a new tool to probe the nature of dark energy (DE) and
the fundamental properties of gravity. We review the different ways in which GWs can be …

An introduction to the Vainshtein mechanism

E Babichev, C Deffayet - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We introduce the Vainshtein mechanism which plays a crucial role in massive gravities, as
well as in related theories such as Galileons and their extensions. This mechanism, also …

Graviton mass bounds
