Interesting paper -- thanks for posting this!

Using shape measurements ²⁰ of more than 30 million source galaxies
covering the same area as the LRG sample, we calculate the lensing signal
around the LRGs and stack them together to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio

Now that is impressive

and they are waiting the the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) to smash any gravity theory contender.

Thanks, a very much interesting confirmation. Thanks for sharing.

It also supports dark matter and dark energy theories.
