Post-Newtonian limit of hybrid metric-Palatini f(R)-gravity (1907.06919v1)
Published 16 Jul 2019 in gr-qc
Abstract: Using the latest most accurate values of post-Newtonian parameters $\gamma$ and $\beta$ obtained by MESSENGER we impose restrictions on the recently proposed hybrid f(R)-gravity model in its scalar-tensor representation. We show that the presence of a light scalar field in this theory does not contradict the experimental data based not only on the $ \gamma $ parameter (as was shown earlier), but also on all other PPN parameters. The application of parameterized post-Newtonian formalism to gravitational theories with massive fields is also discussed.
