Constraints on Scalar--Tensor--Vector Gravity Theory Parameters Inferred from Quasiperiodic Oscillations
We study circular geodesics of neutral test particles in the static charged solution of Scalar--Tensor--Vector Gravity (STVG), and we use the twin kilohertz quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) of twelve accreting compact objects to bound its parameters. Starting from the effective potential we obtain closed forms for the...
