Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: A roadmap (2019)
Journal Article
Askar, A., Bertone, G., Bon, E., Blas, D., Brito, R., Burrage, C., …Zilhão, M. (2019). Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: A roadmap. Classical and Quantum Gravity, 36(14), Article 143001. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6382/ab0587

© 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd. The grand challenges of contemporary fundamental physics-dark matter, dark energy, vacuum energy, inflation and early universe cosmology, singularities and the hierarchy problem-all involve gravity as a key component. And o... Read More about Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: A roadmap.

Symmetron scalar fields: modified gravity, dark matter, or both? (2019)
Journal Article
Burrage, C., Copeland, E. J., Käding, C., & Millington, P. (2019). Symmetron scalar fields: modified gravity, dark matter, or both?. Physical Review D, 99(4), Article 043539. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.99.043539

Scalar fields coupled to gravity through the Ricci scalar have been considered both as dark matter candidates and as a possible modified gravity explanation for galactic dynamics. It has recently been demonstrated that the dynamics of baryonic matter... Read More about Symmetron scalar fields: modified gravity, dark matter, or both?.

Laboratory constraints (2018)
Journal Article
Brax, P., Burrage, C., & Davis, A. (2018). Laboratory constraints. International Journal of Modern Physics D, (1848009). doi:10.1142/s0218271818480097. ISSN 0218-2718

We review laboratory constraints on theories of modified gravity and show that they are complementary to cosmological and astrophysical tests. We particularly focus on the environmentally dependent dilaton, as a worked example to show how such constr... Read More about Laboratory constraints.
