Authors may use MDPI'sĮnglish editing service prior to publication or during author revisions. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. Universe is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts should be submitted online at by registering and logging in to this website. Thus, we invite both original and review papers for publication in this Special Issue. The aim of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of the current status of cosmological tests of gravity, as well as to gather new developments in the theoretical interpretation of the observed cosmic acceleration from ongoing and future analyses. These are crucial to elucidate the nature of gravity on large scales and to test all of the proposed models. Ongoing and upcoming analyses will provide highly precise data that will allow us to test gravity with unprecedented accuracy. This has led people to propose new alternatives, such as dynamical dark energy and theories of modified gravity, in place of the cosmological constant (L).

The recent cosmic acceleration of the universe is challenging the theory of general relativity, which is the basis of the standard L-cold-dark-matter (LCDM) cosmological model. This Special Issue will collect contributions related to cosmological tests of gravity.
