Propagating Degrees of Freedom in f(R) Gravity
We have computed the number of polarization modes of gravitational waves propagating in the Minkowski background in f(R) gravity. These are three of two from transverse-traceless tensor modes and one from a massive trace mode, which confirms the results found in the literature. There is no massless...
