Einstein-Cartan gravity is a close historical sibling of general relativity that allows for spacetime torsion. As a result, angular momentum couples to spacetime geometry in a similar way to energy. While consequences of this are well…
Quartic gravity theory is considered with the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangean $R+aR^{2}+bR_{\mu \nu}R^{\mu \nu},$ $R_{\mu \nu}$ being Ricci\'s tensor and R the curvature scalar. The parameters $a$ and $b$ are taken of order 1 km$^{2}.$…
