The characterization of the gravitational field of isolated objects is still an open question in quadratic theories of gravity. We study static equilibrium solutions for a self-gravitating fluid in extensions of General Relativity including terms quadratic in the Weyl tensor $C_{mu urhosigma}$ and in the Ricci scalar $R$, as suggested by one-loop corrections to classical gravity. By the means of a shooting method procedure we link the total gravitational mass and the strength of the Yukawa corrections associated with the quadratic terms with the fluid properties at the center. It is shown that the inclusion of the $C_{mu urhosigma}C^{mu urhosigma}$ coupling in the lagrangian has a much stronger impact than the $R^2$ correction in the determination of the radius and of the maximum mass of a compact object. We also suggest that the ambiguity in the definition of mass in quadratic gravity theories can conveniently be exploited to detect deviations from standard General Relativity.
The direct detection of gravitational waves now provides a new channel of testing gravity theories. Despite that the parametrized post-Einsteinian framework is a powerful tool to quantitatively investigate effects of modification of gravity theory, t
We compute the modified friction coefficient controlling the propagation of tensor metric perturbations in the context of a generalized cosmological scenario based on a theory of gravity with quadratic curvature corrections. In such a context we disc
We deal with quadratic metric-affine gravity (QMAG), which is an alternative theory of gravity and present a new explicit representation of the field equations of this theory. In our previous work we found new explicit vacuum solutions of QMAG, namel
In this paper we analyze the gravitational field of a global monopole in the context of $f(R)$ gravity. More precisely, we show that the field equations obtained are expressed in terms of $F(R)=frac{df(R)}{dR}$. Since we are dealing with a sphericall
We study the evolution of a self interacting scalar field in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory in four dimension where the scalar field couples non minimally with the Gauss-Bonnet term. Considering a polynomial coupling of the scalar field with the Gauss-
