The dark matter distribution in dwarf galaxies holds a wealth of information on the fundamental properties and interactions of the dark matter particle. In this paper, we study whether ultralight bosonic dark matter is consistent with the…

We investigate the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation in low surface brightness galaxies selected from the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA survey. We find that the $\rm HI$-bearing low surface brightness galaxies still follow the baryonic Tully-Fisher…

The recent measurements of circular velocity curves from weak lensing of the isolated galaxies lead to a conclusion that the circular velocity curves remain flat well beyond the virial radii of dark matter halos up to 1 Mpc. This is in…

General Relativity is able to describe the dynamics of galaxies and larger cosmic structures only if most of the matter in the Universe is dark, namely it does not emit any electromagnetic radiation. Intriguingly, on the scale of galaxies,…

Our present understanding of the universe requires the existence of dark matter and dark energy. We describe here a natural mechanism that could make exotic dark matter and possibly dark energy unnecessary. Graviton-graviton interactions…
