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…

It is well-known that the application of Newtonian dynamics to an expanding spherical region leads to the correct relativistic expression (the Friedmann equation) for the evolution of the cosmic scale factor. Here, the cosmological…

We test the modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) theory with the velocity-dispersion profiles of Galactic globular clusters populating the outermost region of the Milky Way halo, where the Galactic acceleration is lower than the…

Evolutions of X-ray clusters of galaxies are studied by N-body (shell model) + mesh code (TVD) simulations on the assumption of spherical symmetry. We consider a density perturbation of $10^{15} M_{\odot}$ composed of dark matter and gas in…

The observed dynamics of gas and stars on galactic and larger scales cannot be accounted for by self-gravity, indicating that there are large quantities of unseen matter, or that gravity is non-Newtonian in these regimes. Milgrom's MOdified…

The stability of spiral galaxies is compared in modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and Newtonian dynamics with dark matter (DM). We extend our previous simulations that involved pure stellar discs without gas, to deal with the effects of…

The formation and evolution of galaxies is highly dependent on the dynamics of stars and gas, which is governed by the underlying law of gravity. To investigate how the formation and evolution of galaxies takes place in Milgromian gravity…

General analytic arguments lead us to expect that in the modified dynamics (MOND) self-gravitating disks are more stable than their like in Newtonian dynamics. We study this question numerically, using a particle-mesh code based on a…

In the context of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), we study how perturbation of a spherically symmetric system would affect the gravitational field. In particular, we study systems of perturbed and unperturbed spherical shells. For a…

We use our Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) cosmological particle-mesh N-body code to investigate the feasibility of structure formation in a framework involving MOND and light sterile neutrinos in the mass range 11 - 300 eV: always…

(doctoral thesis of Michal Bilek, finished on June 19, 2015) MOND is an observational rule for predicting the acceleration of stars and galaxies from the distribution of the visible matter. It possibly stems from a new law of physics. I…

Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND), which postulates a breakdown of Newton's laws of gravity/dynamics below some critical acceleration threshold, can explain many otherwise puzzling observational phenomena on galactic scales. MOND competes…
