In MOND (modified Newtonian dynamics)-based theories the strong equivalence principle is generically broken in an idiosyncratic manner, manifested in the action of an "external field effect (EFE)". The internal dynamics in a…
The MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) is presented here, as well as a theory that can be linked to it: the theory of the Aether, a four-vector field breaking Lorentz invariance. The form of its Lagrangian is studied, then basic equations…
Both microlensing surveys and radio-frequency observations of gas flow imply that the inner Milky Way is completely dominated by baryons, contrary to the predictions of standard cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology. We investigate the…
In recent work (Milgrom 2009, Blanchet & Novak 2011), the authors showed that MOdified Newton Dynamics (MOND) have a non-negligible secular perturbation effect on planets with large semi-major axes (gaseous planets) in the Solar System.…
In the past few decades, various versions of modified gravity theories were proposed to mimic the effect of dark matter. Compared with the conventional Newtonian or relativistic dynamics, these theories contain some extra apparent force…
The iconic, deep-MOND-limit (DML) relation between acceleration and mass, $a\sim (M\mathcal{A}_0)^{1/2}/r$, implies that, in MOND, accelerations cannot be linear in the mass distribution ($\mathcal{A}_0\equiv Ga_0$ is the DML constant, and…
Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is an empirical theory originally proposed to explain the rotation curves of spiral galaxies by modifying the gravitational acceleration, rather than by invoking dark matter. Here,we set constraints on…
Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) is one of the most popular alternative theories of dark matter to explain the missing mass problem in galaxies. Although it remains controversial regarding MOND as a fundamental theory, MOND phenomenology…
Models of "modified-inertia" formulation of MOND are described and applied to nonrelativistic many-body systems. They involve time-nonlocal equations of motion. Momentum, angular momentum, and energy are (nonlocally) defined, whose total…
Dark matter or modifications of the Newtonian inverse-square law in the solar-system are studied with accurate planetary astrometric data. From extra-perihelion precession and possible changes in the third Kepler's law, we get an upper…
Galaxy groups, which have hardly been looked at in MOND, afford probing the acceleration discrepancies in regions of system-parameter space that are not accessible in well-studied galactic systems, such as galaxies, galaxy clusters, and…
We study the impact of the cosmological environment on the solar gravitational system by the imbedding formalism of Gautreau. It appears that the cosmic mean-mass density and the cosmological constant give negligibly small contribution to…
MOND predicts that the asymptotic gravitational potential of an isolated, bounded (baryonic) mass, M, is phi(r)=(MGa0)^{1/2}ln(r); a0 is the MOND constant. Relativistic MOND theories predict that the lensing effects of M are dictated by…
Why does there appear in the modified dynamics (MOND) an acceleration constant, a0, of cosmological significance? An intriguing possibility is that MOND, indeed inertia itself--as embodied in the actions of free particles and fields, is due…
We investigated the impact of three different modifications of Newtonian gravity on motions of Keplerian objects within the Solar System. These objects are located at distances of the order of the distance to the Oort cloud. With these…
A new class of Kuiper belt objects that lie beyond Neptune with semimajor axes greater than 250 astronomical units show orbital anomalies that have been interpreted as evidence for an undiscovered ninth planet. We show that a modified…
Modified Newtonian dynamics (Mond) has had considerable success in describing motions in galaxies. It uses a single force which falls off inversely with the distance at large distances and inversely with the square of the distance at…
Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND), which postulates a breakdown of Newton's laws of gravity/dynamics below some critical acceleration threshold, can explain many otherwise puzzling observational phenomena on galactic scales. MOND competes…
Galaxies within galaxy clusters are known to be subject to a wide variety of environmental effects, both gravitational and hydrodynamical. In this study, we examine the purely gravitational interaction of idealised galaxy models falling…
We examine the implications of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) on the large scale structure in a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe. We employ a ``Jeans swindle'' to write a MOND-type relationship between the fluctuations in the density…
