Formation and Evolution of Wakes in the Spacetime Generated by a Cosmic String in $f(R)$ Theory of Gravity
The formation and evolution of cosmic string wakes in the framework of a $f(R)$ theory of gravity are investigated in this work. We consider a simple model in which baryonic matter flows past a cosmic string. We treat this problem in the Zel'dovich approximation. We compare our results with previous results obtained in the context of General Relativity and Scalar-Theories of Gravity.
