We investigate scalar-tensor theories, motivated by dark energy models, in the strong gravity regime around the black hole at the centre of our galaxy. In such theories general relativity is modified since the scalar field couples to…

We construct axisymmetric mass models for dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies in the Milky Way to obtain plausible limits on the non-spherical structure of their dark halos. This is motivated by the fact that the observed luminous parts of the…

Scalar Tensor Vector Gravity(STVG) is one of a modified gravity theory developed by John Moffat(2005). MOG is abbreviated name for this theory.This theory is added a massive vector field to Brans-Dicke theory. It can explain a galactic…
