It is known that one can formulate an action in teleparallel gravity which is equivalent to general relativity, up to a boundary term. In this geometry we have vanishing curvature, and non-vanishing torsion. The action is constructed by…
It is shown that, contrary to what is normally expected, it is possible to have angular momentum effects on the geometry of space time at the laboratory scale, much bigger than the purely Newtonian effects. This is due to the fact that the…

According to the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, curvature and torsion are two equivalent ways of describing the same gravitational field. Despite equivalent, however, they act differently: whereas curvature yields a…

We present a class of cosmological solutions for a generalized teleparallel gravity with, $f(T)=T+\tilde{\alpha}(-T)^n$, where $\tilde{\alpha}$ is some parameter and $n$ is an integer or half-integer. Choosing $\tilde{\alpha} \sim G^{n-1}$,…
