Cosmological constraints on the Hu-Sawicki modified gravity scenario

In this paper we place new constraints on a f(R) modified gravity model recently proposed by Hu and Sawicki (HS). After checking that the HS model produces a viable cosmology, i.e. a matter dominated epoch followed by a late-time acceleration, we constrain some of its parameters by using recent obse...
