A tensor virial approach is used to construct detailed models of 22 flattened ellipticals. The models are combined with the new observational data: extended surface brightness distributions, the profiles of isophotes flattening and their…
We discuss the development and physics of the cosmic virial theorem and its traditional application as an indicator of the cosmic mean density. The standard result that the density must be sub-critical relies on the assumption that the…
A kinematical analysis applied to a sample of galaxy clusters indicates that the differences between the velocity distribution of elliptical and spiral galaxies are associated with the shape of their orbit families. The orbital anisotropies…
The virial theorem prescribes the ratio of the globally-averaged equatorial to vertical velocity dispersion of a tracer population in spherical and flattened dark haloes. This gives sequences of physical models in the plane of global…
The measured rotation velocity profiles of mature spiral galaxies are successfully described with a gravitational model consisting of a thin axisymmetric disk of finte radius. The disk is assumed uniformly thin but with variable radial mass…
Observations of the line-of-sight component of emitter velocities in galaxies are valuable for reconstructing their 2D velocity fields, albeit requiring certain assumptions. A common one is that radial flows can be neglected in the outer…
A corollary of general relativity that the average velocity of light between two points in a gravitational field is anisotropic has been overlooked. It is shown that this anisotropy can be probed by an experiment which constitutes another…
We present a study of the dynamics of triplets of galaxies. In particular we focus on properties that are directly comparable with observations: e.g., velocity dispersion, mean harmonic radius, and virial mass. We find, for example, that…
The Transit Timing Variation (TTV) method relies on monitoring changes in timing of transits of known exoplanets. Non-transiting planets in the system can be inferred from TTVs by their gravitational interaction with the transiting planet.…
The collisionless quasi-equilibrium state realized after the cold collapse of self-gravitating systems has two remarkable characters. One of them is the linear temperature-mass (TM) relation, which yields a characteristic non-Gaussian…
Galaxies and galaxy clusters have rotational velocities apparently too fast to allow them to be gravitationally bound by their visible matter. This has been attributed to the presence of invisible (dark) matter, but so far this has not been…
A new variational technique determines the general condition of equilibrium of a rotating gravito-electromagnetic system and provides a modified dynamical equation of motion from where it emerges a so-far unforseen topological torsion…
Several general trends have been identified for equilibrated, self-gravitating collisionless systems, such as density or anisotropy profiles. These are integrated quantities which naturally depend on the underlying velocity distribution…
We investigate the velocity distribution of elliptical galaxies in the framework of Non-local Gravity. According to this approach, it is possible to recover the fundamental plane of elliptical galaxies without the dark matter hypothesis.…
In order to examine the rotational effect around neutron star in tensor-vector-scalar (TeVeS) theory, we consider the slowly rotating relativistic stars with a uniform angular velocity. As a result, we find that similar to the case in…
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…
In this work, we submit the explanation of spectra of the rotary curves of galaxies on the basis of a vector theory of gravitation without regard to the dark matter hypothesis. We study the approximation of rotary curves in case of existing…
We estimate the vertical gradient of rotational velocity for several spiral galaxies in the framework of a global thin-disc model, using the approximation of quasi-circular orbits. We obtain gradients having a broad range of values, in…
We consider the consequences of applying general relativity to the description of the dynamics of a galaxy, given the observed flattened rotation curves. The galaxy is modeled as a stationary axially symmetric pressure-free fluid. In spite…
The correction to Maxwell-Boltzmann's velocity distribution law is obtained in the framework of the modified special relativity theory. The detection of velocity and velocity rate distributions for thermal molecules or atoms or other…
