Power-laws f(R) theories are cosmologically unacceptable

In a recent paper,1 we have shown that f(R) = R + μRn modified gravity dark energy models are not cosmologically viable because during the matter era that precedes the accelerated stage the cosmic expansion is given by a ~ t1/2 rather than a ~ t2/3, where a is a scale factor and t is the cosmic time...
