Particle collisions are considered within the context of $f(R)$ gravity described by $f(R)=R+2\alpha\sqrt{R}$, where $R$ stands for the Ricci scalar and $\alpha$ is a non-zero constant. The center of mass (CM) energy of head-on colliding…

General Relativity (GR) exists in different formulations, which are equivalent in pure gravity. Once matter is included, however, observable predictions generically depend on the version of GR. In order to quantify the resulting ambiguity,…
