We bring together two popular formalisms which generically parameterise deviations from General Relativity on astrophysical and cosmological scales, namely the parameterised post-Newtonian (PPN) formalism and the effective field theory…

Light degrees of freedom that modify gravity on cosmological scales must be "screened" on solar system scales in order to be compatible with data. The Vainshtein mechanism achieves this through a breakdown of classical perturbation theory,…
