Abstract
We perform the twopoint diagnostic for the function proposed by Sahni in 2014 for the Starobinsky and Hu & Sawicki models in gravity. We show that the observed values of the function can be explained in models while in LCDM the funticon is expected to be a redshift independent number. We perform the analysis for some particular values of founding a cumulative probability () or for the better cases versus a cumulative probability of in the CDM scenario. We also show that these models present a characteristic signature around the interval between and , that could be confronted with future observations using the same test.
