Dark torsion as the cosmic speed-up
Open accessAbstract
It is shown that the recently detected acceleration of the Uuniverse can be understood by considering a modification of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, with no need of dark energy. The solution also exhibits phases dominated by matter and radiation as expected in the standard cosmological evolution. We perform a joint analysis with measurements of the most recent type Ia supernovae, baryon acoustic oscillation peak, and estimates of the cosmic microwave background shift parameter data to constrain the only new parameter this theory has.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
