Description
In this project we will analyse a theory with non-minimal matter–curvature coupling,
considering non–metricity properties with a Weyl connection. This model has the
advantage of an extra force term which can mimic dark matter and dark energy, and
simultaneously follow Weyl’s idea of unifying gravity and electromagnetism. Indeed,
we can show astrophysical results like Schwarzschild and Reissner–Nordstrøm
black hole solutions and the Layzer–Irvine equation for an homogeneous and
isotropic Universe, in order to understand the important role that this non-metricity
property can play in several astrophysical systems.
