Modeling halo mass functions in chameleon gravity

L Lombriser, B Li, K Koyama, GB Zhao - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2013 - APS
On cosmological scales, observations of the cluster abundance currently place the strongest
constraints on f (R) gravity. These constraints lie in the large-field limit, where the …

Unscreening modified gravity in the matter power spectrum

L Lombriser, F Simpson, A Mead - Physical Review Letters, 2015 - APS
Viable modifications of gravity that may produce cosmic acceleration need to be screened in
high-density regions such as the Solar System, where general relativity is well tested …

Chameleon dark energy models with characteristic signatures

R Gannouji, B Moraes, DF Mota, D Polarski… - Physical Review D …, 2010 - APS
In chameleon dark energy models, local gravity constraints tend to rule out parameters in
which observable cosmological signatures can be found. We study viable chameleon …

Cosmology of chameleons with power-law couplings

DF Mota, HA Winther - The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 - iopscience.iop.org
In chameleon field theories, a scalar field can couple to matter with gravitational strength
and still evade local gravity constraints due to a combination of self-interactions and the …
