Gravitational instabilities play an important role in galaxy evolution and in shaping the interstellar medium (ISM). The ISM is observed to be highly turbulent, meaning that observables like the gas surface density and velocity dispersion…

With the release of Gaia DR3, we extend the comparison between dynamical models for the Milky Way rotation curve initiated in the previous work. Utilising astrometric and spectro-photometric data for 719143 young disc stars within $|z|<1$…

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…

We present an efficient, robust computational method for modeling the Newtonian dynamics for rotation curve analysis of thin-disk galaxies. For a disk galaxy with a typical flat rotation curve, our modeling results show that the surface…

The new spatial condensation cosmological theory, based on the new universal constant of expansion, kappa = G Rho t^2 = 3/(32 Pi), is used to predict measurements of the supernova Ia data with no acceleration of the expansion rate of the…

In modelling galaxy structure formation, neither Cold Dark Matter (CDM) nor canonical Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) (Milgrom [1]) can easily accommodate the appearance of massive galaxies at early times [2]. As a baseline We propose a…

I review briefly different aspects of the MOND paradigm, with emphasis on phenomenology, epitomized here by many MOND laws of galactic motion--analogous to Kepler's laws of planetary motion. I then comment on the possible roots of MOND in…

(Abridged) Dynamical friction can be used to distinguish Newtonian gravity and modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) because it works differently in these frameworks. This concept, however, has yet to be explored very much with MOND. Previous…

The detailed distribution and kinematics of the atomic and the CO-bright molecular hydrogen in the disc of the Milky Way inside the Solar circle are derived under the assumptions of axisymmetry and pure circular motions. We divide the…

The standard Q criterion (with Q > 1) describes the local stability of a disc supported by rotation and random motion. Most astrophysical discs, however, are under the influence of an external gravitational field which can affect their…

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…
