A historical perspective on modified Newtonian dynamics [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Physics, 2015 I review the history and development of modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) beginning with the phenomenological basis as it existed in the early 1980s. I consider Milgrom’s papers of 1983 introducing the idea and its consequences for galaxies and galaxy groups, as well as the initial reactions, both negative and positive.

Debye Entropic Force and Modified Newtonian Dynamics [PDF]
Communications in Theoretical Physics, 2011 Verlinde has suggested that the gravity has an entropic origin, and a gravitational system could be regarded as a thermodynamical system. It is well-known that the equipartition law of energy is invalid at very low temperature. Therefore, entropic force should be modified while the temperature of the holographic screen is very low. It is shown that the

Modified Newtonian Dynamics: A Falsification of Cold Dark Matter
Advances in Astronomy, 2009 The only viable alternative to dark matter is one in which Newtonian dynamics or gravity breaks down in the limit of low accelerations, as in modified Newtonian dynamics (MONDs).

The total mass of the early-type galaxy NGC 4649 (M60) [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2008 In this paper the problem of the total mass and the total mass-to-light ratio of the early-type galaxy NGC 4649 (M60) is analyzed. Use is made of two independent techniques: the X-ray methodology which is based on the temperature of the X-ray halo of NGC

Loss of Mass and Stability of Galaxies in Modified Newtonian Dynamics [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 The self-binding energy and stability of a galaxy in MOND-based gravity are curiously decreasing functions of its center-of-mass acceleration (of the order of 10-12 to 10-10 m s-2) toward neighboring mass concentrations. A tentative indication of this breaking of the strong equivalence principle in field galaxies is the RAVE-observed escape speed in ...

Modified gravity revealed along geodesic tracks
European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2018 The study of the dynamics of a two-body system in modified gravity constitutes a more complex problem than in Newtonian gravity. Numerical methods are typically needed to solve the equations of geodesics.

Clusters of galaxies with modified Newtonian dynamics [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2003 X-ray emitting clusters of galaxies are considered in the context of modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND). I show that self-gravitating isothermal gas spheres are not good representations of rich clusters with respect to the radial gas density distribution as indicated by the X-ray surface brightness.

Numerical simulations of Modified Newtonian Dynamics [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2016 The ΛCDM standard cosmological model is strongly supported by multiple lines of evidence, particularly from observations at large scales such as the CMB and large scale structure. There are some indications, however, of problems at smaller scales. An alternative to the CDM approach is to modify the gravitational force, as exemplified by the MOdified ...

The modified Newtonian dynamics Fundamental Plane [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2011 Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) has been shown to be able to fit spiral galaxy rotation curves as well as giving a theoretical foundation for empirically determined scaling relations, such as the Tully-Fisher law, without the need for a dark matter halo. As a complementary analysis, one should investigate whether MOND can also reproduce the dynamics
