Testing universal dark-matter caustic rings with galactic rotation curves
Infall of cold dark matter on a galaxy may result in caustic rings where the particle density is enhanced. They may be searched for as features in the galactic rotation curves.

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

Galactic rotation dynamics in a new $$f({\mathcal {R}})$$ f ( R ) gravity model
We propose to test the viability of the recently introduced $$f(\mathcal {R})$$ f ( R ) gravity model in the galactic scales. For this purpose we consider test particles moving in stable circular orbits around the galactic center.

On the Keplerian Rotation Curves of Galaxies [PDF]
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 non-Keplerian rotation curves so far obtained, and investigated their relative fraction.

High-Resolution Rotation Curves and Galaxy Mass Models from Things [PDF]
We present rotation curves of 19 galaxies from The H I Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS). The high spatial and velocity resolution of THINGS make these the highest quality H I rotation curves available to date for a large sample of nearby galaxies, spanning ...

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

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

Galaxy rotation curves and preferred reference frame effects
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]
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.
