Gravitational potential in Palatini formulation of modified gravity

Abstract

General Relativity has so far passed almost all the ground-based and solar-system experiments. Any reasonable extended gravity models should consistently reduce to it at least in the weak field approximation. In this work we derive the gravitational potential for the Palatini formulation of the modified gravity of the L(R) type which admits a de Sitter vacuum solution. We conclude that the Newtonian limit is always obtained in those class of models and the deviations from General Relativity is very small for a slowly moving source.Comment: 5 pages, no figure
