PPN-limit of Fourth Order Gravity inspired by Scalar-Tensor Gravity
S. Capozziello, A. Troisi
Abstract
Based on the dynamical equivalence between higher order gravity and scalar-tensor gravity the PPN-limit of fourth order gravity is discussed. We exploit this analogy developing a fourth order gravity version of the Eddington PPN-parameters. As a result, Solar System experiments can be reconciled with higher order gravity, if physical constraints descending from experiments are fulfilled.
