cds-question@unistra.frgalaxy-rotationastronomical-modelsWe apply the modified acceleration law obtained from Einstein gravity coupled to a massive skew-symmetric field F_{mu}{nu}{lambda}_ to the problem of explaining galaxy rotation curves without exotic dark matter. Our sample of galaxies includes low surface brightness (LSB) and high surface brightness (HSB) galaxies and an elliptical galaxy. In those cases for which photometric data are available, a best fit via the single parameter (M/L)_stars_ to the luminosity of the gaseous (HI plus He) and luminous stellar disks is obtained. In addition, a best fit to the rotation curves of galaxies is obtained in terms of a parametric mass distribution (independent of luminosity observations) - a two-parameter fit to the total galactic mass (or mass-to-light ratio M/L) and a core radius associated with a model of the galaxy cores - using a nonlinear least-squares fitting routine including estimated errors. The fits are compared to those obtained using Milgrom's phenomenological MOND model and to the predictions of the Newtonian/Kepler acceleration law.2006ApJ...636..721Bhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/636/721CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/145 : Nearby Galaxies Catalogue (NBG) (Tully 1988)J/ApJ/598/260 : Satellites orbiting isolated galaxies (Prada+, 2003)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/636/721https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/636/721http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/636/721https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/636/721https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/636/721http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/636/721GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJ/636/721/table1 (Galaxy properties of the complete sample)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/636/721/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/636/721/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/636/721/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true193.5227527.14869440.0055555555555555566/1007 1561 2155 2351 2383 2409 2709 3506 3558 4511 4695 5129 5463 5469 5500 5503 5581 5587 5589 5591 5594 5596 5599 5623 5625 5628 5629 5631 5751 5827 5956 5967 5975 7241 7424 7606 7743 8552 8557 10286 10475 10511 10761 10841 10856 10924 10925 10927 10930 10955 10977 10979 10986 10990 10991 11000 11019 11027 11375 11434 11448 11639 13522 15592 15955 16655 16701 17754 18387 21859 23077 23872 25513 26303 26336 27030 27106 27515 27937 28035 28141 28149 28184 28230 28261 28498 28612 32231 34273 34531 35512 35536 35993 38846 40946 43233 43881https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJ/636/721?format=asciidefaultJ/ApJ/636/721/table1Galaxy properties of the complete samplerecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
