We investigate recent claims that gravitomagnetic effects in linearised general relativity can explain flat and rising rotation curves, such as those observed in galaxies, without the need for dark matter. If one models a galaxy as an…

We apply the modified acceleration law obtained from Einstein gravity coupled explaining galaxy rotation curves without exotic dark matter. Our sample of galaxies includes low surface brightness (LSB) and high surface brightness (HSB)…

Spiral galaxies are considered as static, spherically symmetric Dark Matter Configurations (DMC)in which non-zero rest-mass particles (NZRPs) move along appropriate trajectories. Using general relativity (GR), we show that a mass of dark…

While the total interior mass of a galaxy is reasonably well determined by a good rotation curve, the relative contributions from disk, bulge and halo are only weakly constrained by one-dimensional data. Barred galaxies are intrinsically…

Recent isolated galactic simulations show that the morphology of galactic discs in modified gravity differs from that of the standard dark matter model. In this study, we focused on the vertical structure of galactic discs and compared the…

The Universal Rotation Curve (URC) of disk galaxies was originally proposed to predict the shape and amplitude of any rotation curve (RC) based solely on photometric data. Here, the URC is investigated with an extensive set of…

We propose an explanation of features of spiral galaxies: spiral arms and observed flat rotation curves, without the presence of an exotic form of matter. The formalism is based on Boltzmanns transport equation for the collisional matter…

We present a systematic analysis of the rotation curves of 187 galaxies with masses greater than 10^10 M_sol, with atomic gas masses from the GALEX Arecibo Sloan Survey (GASS), and with follow-up long-slit spectroscopy from the MMT. Our…

Scaling relations among structural and kinematical features of 79 late-type spiral and dwarf irregular galaxies of the SPARC sample are revisited or newly established. The mean central surface brightness <$\mu_{0,[3.6]}$> = 19.63 $\pm$ 0.11…

We examine the circular velocity profiles of galaxies in {\Lambda}CDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations from the EAGLE and LOCAL GROUPS projects and compare them with a compilation of observed rotation curves of galaxies spanning a…

Flat rotation curves in disk galaxies represent the main evidence for large amounts of surrounding dark matter. Despite of the difficulty in identifying the dark matter contribution to the total mass density in our Galaxy, stellar…

We present detailed semi-analytical models for the formation of disk galaxies both in a Universe dominated by dark matter (DM), and in one for which the force law is given by modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND). We tune the models to fit the…

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…

The frequently observed lopsidedness of the distribution of stars and gas in disc galaxies is still considered as a major problem in galaxy dynamics. It is even discussed as an imprint of the formation history of discs and the evolution of…

Current theory of disk galaxy formation is used to study fundamental-plane (FP) type of relations for disk galaxies. We examine how the changes in model parameters affect these relations and explore the possibility of using such relations…

The formation of late-type galaxies has traditionally been described via two pathways: one producing pressure-supported classical bulges, the other rotationally supported pseudo-bulges. Early studies relied on photometric decompositions…

An impact model of gravity designed to emulate Newton's law of gravitation is applied to the radial acceleration of disk galaxies. Based on this model (Wilhelm et al. 2013), the rotation velocity curves can be understood without the need to…
