[HTML][HTML] Strengthening extended gravity constraints with combined systems: f (R) bounds from cosmology and the galactic center
Extended gravity is widely constrained in different astrophysical and astronomical systems.
Since these different systems are based on different scales it is not trivial to get a combined …

Constraints on a charge in the Reissner-Nordström metric for the black hole at the Galactic Center
AF Zakharov - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
Using an algebraic condition of vanishing discriminant for multiple roots of fourth-degree
polynomials, we derive an analytical expression of a shadow size as a function of a charge …

Timelike geodesics in naked singularity and black hole spacetimes
In this paper, we derive the solutions of orbit equations for a class of naked singularity
spacetimes and compare these with timelike orbits, that is, particle trajectories in the …

Dark energy interactions near the Galactic Center
D Benisty, AC Davis - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We investigate scalar-tensor theories, motivated by dark energy models, in the strong gravity
regime around the black hole at the center of our galaxy. In such theories general relativity is …

Scalar field effects on the orbit of S2 star
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 - academic.oup.com
Precise measurements of the S-stars orbiting SgrA* have set strong constraints on the
nature of the compact object at the centre of the Milky Way. The presence of a black hole in …

Analysis of the Yukawa gravitational potential in gravity. II. Relativistic periastron advance
Alternative theories of gravity may serve to overcome several shortcomings of the standard
cosmological model but, in their weak field limit, general relativity must be recovered so as to …
