Restrictions on Extended Gravity at Galaxy Clusters Scales

Abstract

Following [1] we discuss the predictions of Starobinsky model of f(R)-gravity with vanishing cosmological constant at galaxy and galaxy clusters scales. As a result we demonstrate that at the current observational accuracy level there is no significant difference in cut-off radius values for Starobinsky model and general relativity (GR) in the mass range from 109MS un till galaxy clusters ones (1018MS un) that shows the good applicability of GR at these ranges.
