Description
One of the common prepositions in theoretical physics is that modified gravity theories capture quantum gravity corrections to general relativity at a phenomenological level. A recent new window to probe these corrections presented itself in the form of studying the scalar induced GWs which are produced by primordial black holes (PBHs) through second-order gravitational effects. In my talk, I shall present explicitly how one can perform this analysis in the context of R^2 modified theories of gravity and possibly even in the context of Loop Quantum Cosmology scenarios.
