However, in the recently proposed hybrid metric-Palatini gravity, consisting of the superposition of the metric Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian with an f(R) term constructed a la Palatini, the {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}true{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} gravitational field is described by the interpolation of these two nonequivalent approaches. The theory predicts the existence of a light long-range scalar field, which passes the local constraints and affects the galactic and cosmological dynamics. Thus, the theory opens new possibilities for a unified approach, in the same theoretical framework, to the problems of dark energy and dark matter, without distinguishing a priori matter and geometric sources, but taking their dynamics into account under the same standard.", optnote="WOS:000329048900013", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1688), last updated on Thu, 30 Jan 2014 11:05:09 +0000", issn="0218-2718", doi="10.1142/S0218271813420066", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1305.3756", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1142/S0218271813420066", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1305.3756", language="English" }
