Abstract

We study $f(R,T)$ theories of gravity, where $T$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor ${T}_{\ensuremath{\mu}\ensuremath{\nu}}$, with independent metric and affine connection (metric-affine theories). We find that the resulting field equations share a close resemblance with their metric-affine ...
