An Analysis for Conservative and Non-conservative f(R, T) Gravity Models

Diyadin Can & Ertan Güdekli · Asian Journal of Research and Reviews in Physics · 2021

As it is known that General Theory of Relativity does not explain the current acceleration of the universe, so there are many attempts to generalize this theory in order to explain the cosmic acceleration without introducing some dark components such as the Dark Energy. Because o...
