We study the cosmological evolution of the field equations in the context of Einstein-Aether cosmology by including a scalar field in a spatially flat Friedmann--Lema\^{\i}tre--Robertson--Walker spacetime. Our analysis is separated into two…

We show that the path of any accelerated body in an arbitrary space-time geometry $g_{\mu\nu}$ can be described as geodesics in a dragged metric $\hat{q}_{\mu\nu}$ that depends only on the background metric and on the motion of the body.…
