Testing Modified Gravity theory (MOG) with Type Ia Supernovae, Cosmic Chronometers and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations

Abstract: We analyse the MOdified Gravity (MOG) theory, proposed by Moffat, in a cosmological context. We use data from Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia), Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) and Cosmic Chronometers (CC) to test MOG predictions. For this, we perform χ 2 tests considering fixed values of H0 and VG, the self-interaction potential of one of the scalar fields in the theory. Our results show that the MOG theory is in agreement with all data sets for some particular values of H0 and VG, being the BAO data set the mos… Show more

“…Our estimated nuissance parameters are consistent with those computed by the Pantheon compilation within 1σ. This agreement has been also obtained in a similar analysis carried out assuming another alternative theory of gravity [58], and in [56] where extensions of the ΛCDM models where assumed. All those mentioned analyses confirm that the value of the nuissance parameters are independent of the cosmological model.…”

“…Direct detection rates of relic neutrinos through neutrino capture on nuclei, as discussed in section 4, are not strongly sensitive to the incoming non-relativistic momentum of the captured neutrinos. This behavior follows from the product of the capture cross section times velocity being constant for neutrino kinetic energies below approximately 1 keV [11]. Therefore, starting from a cross-spectrum of the angular power for comoving neutrino momenta q 1 and q 2 for a given neutrino species, we have…”

“…In this work, we use the mean values estimated by the Pantheon compilation [24] (α = 0.0154 ± 0.06, β = 3.02 ± 0.06, γ = 0.053 ± 0.009) where a ΛCDM model is assumed. These values have been verified by two independent analyses with alternative cosmological models: the one in [51] where the f (R) Hu-Sawicky model is assumed and the one in [52] performed in the context of the MOdified Gravity theory (MOG). To perform the statistical analysis, we compare the value of µ obtained from the data using Eq.…”
