General relativity (GR) is the most successful theory of gravity, with great observational support on local scales. However, to keep GR valid over cosmic scales, some phenomena (such as flat galaxy rotation curves and the cosmic expansion…
We compare the Baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) of simulations and observations of galaxies ranging from dwarfs to spirals, using various measures of rotational velocity Vrot. We explore the BTFR when measuring Vrot at the flat part of…
Here I report the scaling relation between the baryonic masses and the scale lengths of stellar discs from $\sim$1000 morphologically late-type galaxies. The baryonic mass-size relation is a single power-law $R_\ast \propto M_b^{0.38}$…
If dark matter is dissipative then the distribution of dark matter within galactic halos can be governed by dissipation, heating and hydrostatic equilibrium. Previous work has shown that a specific model, in the framework of mirror dark…
We present dynamical scaling relations for a homogeneous and representative sample of ~500 massive galaxies, selected only by stellar mass (>10^10 Msun) and redshift (0.025<z<0.05) as part of the ongoing GALEX Arecibo SDSS Survey. We…
We used ionized gas and stellar kinematics for 667 spatially resolved galaxies publicly available from the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey (CALIFA) 3rd Data Release with the aim of studying kinematic scaling relations as the…
In this paper, we derive scaling relations between photometric observable quantities and disk galaxy rotation velocity V_rot, or Tully-Fisher relations (TFRs). Our methodology is dictated by our purpose of obtaining purely photometric,…
We hypothesize a simple scenario to associate spiral-shaped trajectories and asymptotic tangential velocities according to observations found on deep space scales. As a difference with alternative Modified Newton Dynamics (MoND), in our…
We study the link between baryons and dark matter in 240 galaxies with spatially resolved kinematic data. Our sample spans 9 dex in stellar mass and includes all morphological types. We consider (i) 153 late-type galaxies (LTGs; spirals and…
In this paper we study the kinetic theory of many-particle astrophysical systems imposing axial symmetry and extending our previous analysis in Phys. Rev. D 83, 123007 (2011). Starting from a Newtonian model describing a collisionless…
Using 22 hydrodynamical simulated galaxies in a LCDM cosmological context we recover not only the observed baryonic Tully-Fisher relation, but also the observed "mass discrepancy--acceleration" relation, which reflects the distribution of…
The Scale-Invariant Vacuum (SIV) theory is based on Weyl's Integrable Geometry, endowed with a gauge scalar field. The main difference between MOND and the SIV theory is that the first considers a global dilatation invariance of space and…
We use a new deprojection formula to infer the gravitational potential around isolated galaxies from weak gravitational lensing. The results imply circular velocity curves that remain flat for hundreds of kpc, greatly extending the classic…
The ratio of baryonic-to-dark matter in present-day galaxies constrains galaxy formation theories and can be determined empirically via the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR), which compares a galaxy's baryonic mass (Mbary) to its…
The dynamical and virial mass of the Milky Way galaxy is estimated using latest high precision stellar halo and dwarf galaxy satellite kinematics. The new data suggest the Galaxy is a highly compact, classically thermalized object.…
Recently, from the new Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves (SPARC) data, McGaugh et al. (2016) reported a tight Radial Acceleration Relation (RAR) between the observed total acceleration and the acceleration produced by baryons…
A strong correlation has been measured between the observed centripetal accelerations in galaxies and the accelerations implied by the baryonic components of galaxies. This empirical radial acceleration relation must be accounted for in any…
The cold dark matter paradigm has been posited as the standard explanation for the non-Keplerian behavior of galaxy rotation curves, where for galaxies satisfying the Tully-Fisher relation, the mass of the dark matter halo from a large…
Recently, a tight correlation between the dynamical radial acceleration and the baryonic radial acceleration in galaxies - the radial acceleration relation - has been discovered. This has been claimed as an indirect support of the modified…
We discuss the shape and decomposition of rotation curves (RCs) of galaxies formed within growing cold dark matter halos. The outer RC shape correlates mainly with the surface brightness (SB), the luminous mass fraction, fd, and the bulge…
