Recent observations by Mistele et al. show that the circular velocity curves of isolated galaxies remain flat out to the largest radii probed so far, i.e. $\approx 1$ Mpc. The velocity decline beyond the expected virial radius is not…
Velocities in stable circular orbits about galaxies, a measure of centripetal gravitation, exceed the expected Kepler/Newton velocity as orbital radius increases. Standard LCDM attributes this anomaly to galactic dark matter. McGaugh et al…
In the present investigation flat rotational curves of the galaxies are considered under the framework of brane-world models where the 4d effective Einstein equation has extra terms which arise from the embedding of the 3-brane in the $5d$…
The information contained in galactic rotation curves is examined under a minimal set of assumptions. If emission occurs from stable circular geodesic orbits of a static spherically symmetric field, with information propagated to us along…
We present the results from the analysis of galaxy rotation curves with Verlinde's emergent gravity. We use the data in the SPARC (Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves) database, which contains a sample of 175 nearby disk…
We present a new empirical model for galaxy rotation curves that introduces a velocity correction term {\omega}, derived from observed stellar motion and anchored to Keplerian baselines. Unlike parametric halo models or modified gravity…
Circular velocities of stars and gas in galaxies generally do not decline in accordance with widely expected Keplerian fall-off in velocities further from the galactic nucleus. Two main groups of theories were proposed to explain the…
The rotation curves of 20 spiral galaxies are examined in the light of a toy model (Soares 1992) which has as the main feature the assignment of a high M/L ratio (=30; Ho=50 km/s/Mpc) to the visible matter. The observed rotation of all…
It is common to attribute a flat rotation curve to our Galaxy. However Galazutdinov et al. (2015) in a recent paper have obtained a Keplerian rotation curve for interstellar clouds in outer parts of the Galaxy. They have calculated the…
We analyse the flat behaviour of the rotational curves in some galaxies in the framework of a dilatonic, current-carrying string. We determine the expression of the tangential velocity of test objects following a stable circular equatorial…
Assuming a suitable rotation of the Universe as a whole, we can attribute the rotation of galaxies to it. Using Lagrangian Mechanics we then can find the equations governing the rotation of a galaxy. We find in this way the azimuthal…
A mysterious dark matter is supposed to exist in the galactic halos. In this contrast, we discuss the possibility of explaining the flat rotational velocity curves in f(R) gravity by solving field equations numerically in vacuum and for…
Observations reveal that mature spiral galaxies consist of stars, gases and plasma approximately distributed in a thin disk of circular shape, usually with a central bulge. The rotation velocities quickly increase from the galactic center…
Four alternative proposals as the possible solutions for the rotation curve problem are introduced on the basis of assumption that the cosmic expansion is engaged with the galactic dynamics over the halo. The first one proposes a…
We have made a conformal gravity fit to an available sample of 110 spiral galaxies, and report here on the 20 of those galaxies whose rotation curve data points extend the furthest from galactic centers. We identify the impact on the 20…
Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) and similar proposals can (at least partially) explain the excess rotation of galaxies or the equivalent mass-discrepancy acceleration, without (or by reducing) the requirement of dark matter halos. This…
We propose a criterion for examining whether or not the uncertainty of the outer rotation curves is sufficiently small to distinguish a Keplerian rotation curve from flat ones. We have applied this criterion to both Keplerian and…
The astronomical observations indicate that the universe expands with acceleration and it has a finite event horizon. The recent CMB observations confirm the universe is homogeneous, isotropic and asymptotically flat. The total…
The present work is devoted to study the dynamical evolution of the galaxies in scalar-GaussBonnet gravity in relationship with the MOND paradigm. This study is useful for giving meaning to the presence of a new gravitational constant. The…
The late infall of dark matter onto a galaxy produces structure (such as caustics) in the distribution of dark matter in the halo. We argue that such structure is likely to occur generically on length scales proportional to $l \sim t_0…
