Uncorrelated velocity and size residuals across galaxy rotation curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The mass–velocity–size relation of late-type galaxies decouples into independent correlations between mass and velocity (the Tully–Fisher relation), and between mass and size.

Conformally-rescaled Schwarzschild metrics do not predict flat galaxy rotation curves

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2022
For conformally invariant gravity theories defined on Riemannian spacetime and having the Schwarzschild–de-Sitter (SdS) metric as a solution in the Einstein gauge, we consider whether one may conformally rescale this solution to obtain flat rotation ...

A Cautionary Tale in Fitting Galaxy Rotation Curves with Bayesian Techniques: Does Newton\u27s Constant Vary from Galaxy to Galaxy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The application of Bayesian techniques to astronomical data is generally non-trivial because the fitting parameters can be strongly degenerated and the formal uncertainties are themselves uncertain. An example is provided by the contradictory claims over

Galaxy rotation curves and preferred reference frame effects

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019
As an alternative to dark matter models we use generalized Jordan–Brans–Dicke scalar–vector–tensor (JBD-SVT) gravity model to study the behavior of the rotational velocities of test particles moving around galaxies.

The universal rotation curve of dwarf disc galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016
We use the concept of the spiral rotation curves universality to investigate the luminous and dark matter properties of the dwarf disc galaxies in the local volume (size $\sim11$ Mpc). Our sample includes 36 objects with rotation curves carefully selected from the literature.

Galaxy masses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Galaxy masses play a fundamental role in our understanding of structure formation models. This review addresses the variety and reliability of mass estimators that pertain to stars, gas, and dark matter.

Rotation curves of galaxies by fourth order gravity [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2011
We investigate the radial behavior of galactic rotation curves by a Fourth Order Gravity adding also the Dark Matter component. The Fourth Order Gravity is a Lagrangian containing the Ricci scalar, the Ricci and Riemann tensor, but the rotation curves are depending only on two free parameters.

Rotation curves of galaxies in GR

open access: yes, 2023
It has been suggested that the observed flat rotation curves of disk galaxies can be a peculiar effect of General Relativity (GR) rather than evidence for the presence of dark matter (DM) halos in Newtonian gravity. In Ciotti (2022) the problem has been quantitatively addressed by using the well known weak-field, low-velocity gravitomagnetic limit of ...

Effects of spacetime anisotropy on the galaxy rotation curves

open access: yes, 2013
The observations on galaxy rotation curves show significant discrepancies from the Newtonian theory. This issue could be explained by the effect of the anisotropy of the spacetime.
