We derive the equations of motion of an electrically neutral test particle for modified gravity theories for which the covariant divergence of the ordinary matter energy-momentum tensor does not vanish (i.e. ∇μTμν ≠ 0 ). In fact, we generalize the Mathisson-Papapetrou equations by deriving a general form for the equations of motion of a test particle. Furthermore, using the generalized Mathisson-Papapetrou equations, we investigate the equations of motion of a pole-dipole (spinning) particle in the context of Modified Gravity(MOG).
