Abstract

One century after its formulation, Einsteins general relativity (GR) has made remarkable predictions and turned out to be compatible with all experimental tests. Most of these tests probe the theory in the weak-field regime, and there are theoretical and experimental reasons to believe that GR should be modified when Class. Quantum Grav. 32 (2015) 243001
