By using a novel technique that establishes a correspondence between general relativity and metric-affine theories based on the Ricci tensor, we are able to set stringent constraints on the free parameter of Born-Infeld gravity from the ones recently obtained for Born-Infeld electrodynamics by using light-by-light scattering data from ATLAS. We also discuss how these gravity theories plus matter fit within an effective field theory framework.

Born-Infeld 引力：光对光散射的约束和有效场论视角

通过使用一种在广义相对论和基于 Ricci 张量的度量仿射理论之间建立对应关系的新技术，我们能够从最近为 Born-Infeld 电动力学获得的参数中对 Born-Infeld 引力的自由参数设置严格的约束使用来自 ATLAS 的逐光散射数据。我们还讨论了这些引力理论和物质如何适应有效的场论框架。
