This book discusses theoretical predictions and their comparison
with experiments of extended and modified classical and quantum
theories of gravity. The goal is to provide a readable access and
broad overview over different approaches to the topic to graduate
and PhD students as well as to young researchers. The book presents
both, theoretical and experimental insights and is structured in
three parts. The first addresses the theoretical models beyond
special and general relativity such as string theory, Poincare
gauge theory and teleparallelism as well as Finsler gravity. In
turn, the second part is focused on the observational effects that
these models generate, accounting for tests and comparisons which
can be made on all possible scales: from the universe as a whole
via binary systems, stars, black holes, satellite experiments, down
to laboratory experiments at micrometer and smaller scales. The
last part of this book is dedicated to quantum systems and gravity,
showing tests of classical gravity with quantum systems, and
coupling of quantum matter and gravity.
