Long range scalar fields with a coupling to matter appear to violate known bounds on gravitation in the solar system and the laboratory. This is evaded thanks to screening mechanisms. In this short review, we shall present the various screening mechanisms from an effective field theory point of view. We then investigate how they can and will be tested in the laboratory and on astrophysical and cosmological scales.

  1. Fragility of stealth solutions in mimetic gravity

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Stealth solutions in mimetic gravity decouple from background dynamics on the lambda=0 branch but impose an infinite hierarchy of constraints on perturbations, rendering the screening limit non-uniform and pathological.

  2. Degenerate higher-order scalar-tensor theories in metric-affine gravity

    gr-qc 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A metric-affine version of quadratic DHOST theories is derived and reduced to a one-function family that satisfies degeneracy conditions and light-speed gravitational wave propagation.

  3. Matter influence on large-scale scalar dynamics

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Matter modeled as stochastic sources induces stochastic noise and new interactions in the large-scale EFT for light scalars, yielding corrections to the Klein-Gordon equation that can mimic dynamical dark energy or pr...

  4. Direct detection of solar chameleons with electron recoil data from XENONnT

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0

    XENONnT electron-recoil data bound solar chameleons to log10 β_eff < −6.9, independent of the potential index n for inverse power-law chameleons at the dark-energy scale.

  5. The Status of Single Scalar Field Dark Energy

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.5

    Cosmological data can constrain only a handful of EFT parameters for single-scalar dark energy; extended models show modest preference over Λ but remain underdetermined and challenged by fifth forces and screening.

  6. Unified dark sector and Hubble-tension alleviation in scalar-vector-tensor gravity

    gr-qc 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    A scalar-vector-tensor theory with late-time-only scalar dynamics provides a mechanism to alleviate the Hubble tension in a unified dark sector framework.

  7. Impact of the SNe Ia Magnitude Transition at 20 Mpc on Cosmological Parameter Estimation

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    A 0.19 mag step in supernova absolute magnitude at 20 Mpc improves data fit and increases the Hubble constant by 2% while leaving matter density and dark energy parameters stable.

  8. Scalar-Induced Electromagnetic Radiation: Comparison with Axion-Like Particles and Implications for Modified Gravity

    hep-ph 2024-11 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Scalar fields in scalar-tensor gravity produce EM radiation through φFμνFμν coupling with resonance amplification that differs from ALP φFμν~Fμν signals, enabling potential distinction and modified gravity tests.
