Generalizing the MOND description of rotation curves
Abstract
Description
We present new mathematical alternatives for explaining rotation curves of spiral galaxies in the MOND context. For given total masses, it is shown that various mathematical alternatives to MOND, while predicting flat rotation curves for large galactic radii, predict curves with different peculiar features for smaller radii. They are thus testable against observational data.
