We investigate modified theories of gravity in the context of teleparallel geometries with possible Gauss-Bonnet contributions. The possible coupling of gravity with the trace of the energy-momentum tensor is also taken into account. This…

The parameterised post-Newtonian (PPN) formalism is a weak-field slow-motion approximation for both GR and some of its generalisations. It permits various parameterisations of the motion, among which are the Lagrange-type and Gauss-type…
