Abstract

The geodesic deviation equation has been investigated in the framework of \(f(T,\mathcal {T})\) gravity, where T denotes the torsion and \(\mathcal {T}\) is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor, respectively. The FRW metric is assumed and the geodesic deviation equation has been established following the General Relativity approach in the first hand and secondly, by a direct method using the modified Friedmann equations. Via fundamental observers and null vector fields with FRW background, we have generalized the Raychaudhuri equation and the Mattig relation in \(f(T,\mathcal {T})\) gravity. Furthermore, we have numerically solved the geodesic deviation equation for null vector fields by considering a particular form of \(f(T,\mathcal {T})\) which induces interesting results susceptible to be tested with observational data.
