Seminarium Zakładu Astrofizyki

I will present some recent findings regarding modified gravity's effects on non-relativistic stars and substellar objects. I will demonstrate how some parts of stellar modelling, star's evolution, and cooling processes in substellar objects are affected by alternative theories of gravity. Moreover, I will briefly discuss a few possibilities to test theories of gravity.

Modified gravitation known as Scalar-Tensor-Vector-Gravity (STVG) and MOG and its consequences for dark matter, dark energy, black holes and gravitational waves in astrophysics and cosmology are reviewed.
