Abstract

f(R) gravity is attracting a lot of interest as alternative candidates to explain the observed cosmic acceleration and the missing matter in large scale structures.

Besides, Solar System experiments do not exclude, a priori, the possibility that such theories could give small observable effects also at these scales. We review some results giving the basic ingredients of such an approach.
