Current RSD constraints on the growth as a function of redshift compared to the projected measurements from eBOSS. The current measurements include those discussed in Section 2.3.1 and those for 6dFGS (Beutler et al. 2012), the main SDSS sample (Howlett et al. 2015), 2dFGRS (Song & Percival 2009), the SDSS LRG sample (Oka et al. 2014), a recent result from the BOSS CMASS sample (Alam et al. 2015b), WiggleZ (Blake et al. 2012), and VIPERS (de la Torre et al. 2013). Various models of modified gravity are shown, each with the same background expansion, the same comoving BAO position, and amplitude of the power spectrum normalized to that of the CMB at high redshifts. The black curve shows the growth in a ΛCDM universe, assuming the Planck best fit model parameters. The yellow curve shows γ = 0.5 where ﹩f={{\rm{\Omega }}}_{M}^{\gamma }﹩ (Linder 2005). The purple curve shows γ = 0.6.
