Summary • New method for solving the evolution of linearised perturbations in DGP gravity using a scaling ansatz • Method valid and under control at horizon scales • Assuming HZ initial power spectrum, ISW-ISW too large to fit WMAP data • ISW-galaxy cross-correlation will be a robust discriminator in the future, independent of power spectrum

Does the Geometry Fit? • Tension between SNe and CMB data excludes a flat DGP cosmology • a slightly open universe fits the bill • BAO would exclude the model at 4.5σ, but potentially affected by strong-coupling regime • not a robust test of DGP

( ) = ` ` C 1 2 + ¼ ` ` ISW Effect in DGP • Faster decay of potential strengthens ISW effect • Signal at low multipoles 4x ΛCDM • Excluded if primordial spectrum scale invariant • Extremely hard to reduce significantly by modifying off-brane gradient
ISW-Galaxy Cross-Correlation • Final stages of decay of Φsimilar to ΛCDM • No significant modification to signal • Φdecays much earlier in DGP • Large ISW cross-correlation with high-z galaxies S/N = 2.5 S/N = 5.5
Concluding Remarks • Presented a new method of solving for linear perturbations in DGP theory, opening the study of cosmology at scales where gravity is modified • DGP cosmology fits the geometry of universe provided that a small positive curvature is added • Decay of Newtonian potential is much faster and occurs earlier than in GR • Results in a much stronger ISW effect • Galaxy-ISW cross-correlation differs significantly for high-z SNe and offers a robust test of DGP gravity, independent of perturbation power spectrum
