Abstract
Among modified theories of gravity, the teleparallel fðTÞ gravity is an intensively discussed model in the literature. The best way to investigate its viability is to derive observable predictions which yield evidence or constraints for the model, when compared with actual observations. In this paper we derive the photon sphere and the perihelion shift for weak fðTÞ perturbations of general relativity. We consistently calculate first order teleparallel perturbations of Schwarzschild and Minkowski spacetime geometry, with which we improve and extend existing results in the literature.
