The main goal of this paper is to get in a straightforward form the field equations in metric f (R) gravity, using elementary variational principles and adding a boundary term in the action, instead of the usual treatment in an equivalent... more

In this paper we study the Geodesic Deviation Equation (GDE) in metric f(R) gravity. We start giving a brief introduction of the GDE in General Relativity in the case of the standard cosmology. Next we generalize the GDE for metric f(R)... more

The effective anisotropic stress or gravitational slip η=−Φ/Ψ is a key variable in the characterisation of the physical origin of the dark energy, as it allows to test for a non-minimal coupling of the dark sector to gravity in the Jordan... more

From the galaxy power spectrum in redshift space, we derive semi-analytical results on the generic degeneracy of galaxy clustering measurements. Defining the observables A=Gbσ8 and R=Gfσ8, (being G the growth function, b the bias, f the... more

The actual accelerated expansion of the universe continues being a mystery in physics. Some models had been proposed for this explanations, among them the dark energy, which however has problems of experimental character as well as... more

The effective anisotropic stress  $\eta= −\Phi/\Psi is a key variable in the characterisation of the physical origin of the dark energy. It is however important to use a fully model-independent approach when measuring  to avoid... more

We suggest using net-baryon rapidity distributions in central relativistic heavy-ion collisions at energies reached at the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron, BNL Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider (RHIC), and CERN LHC in order to probe... more

Der Urknall fand, wie wir mit bisher unerreichter Genauigkeit aus den Daten des WMAP-Satelliten zur kosmischen Hintergrundstrahlung wissen, vor 13,7 Milliarden Jahren statt. Seitdem expandiert das Universum und kühlt sich ab: Heute hat... more
