Talk title:
Modified Gravity Theories in Light of Multi-Messenger Gravitational-Wave Astronomy
Speaker:
Celia Escamilla-Rivera

Talk abstract:
In this talk we present the idea that current cosmic acceleration could be the consequence of gravitational leakage into extra dimensions on cosmological scales rather than the result of a non-zero cosmological constant, and consider the ability of future gravitational-wave siren observations to probe this phenomenon and constrain the parameters of phenomenological models of this gravitational leakage. Also, we discuss the capability of a gravitational space interferometer such as LISA to probe this modified gravity on large scales.
