Modified Newtonian Dynamics in the Milky Way
Both microlensing surveys and radio-frequency observations of gas flow imply that the inner Milky Way is completely dominated by baryons, contrary to the predictions of standard cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology. We investigate the predictions of the Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) formula for the Galaxy given the measured baryon distribution. Satisfactory fits to the observationally determin...
متن کاملStealth Acceleration and Modified Gravity
We show how to construct consistent braneworld models which exhibit late time acceleration. Unlike self-acceleration, which has a de Sitter vacuum state, our models have the standard Minkowski vacuum and accelerate only in the presence of matter, which we dub “stealth-acceleration”. We use an effective action for the brane which includes an induced gravity term, and allow for an asymmetric set-...
متن کاملCosmic Acceleration and Modified Gravity
Abstract I briefly discuss some attempts to construct a consistent modification to General Relativity (GR) that might explain the observed late-time acceleration of the universe and provide an alternative to dark energy. I mention the issues facing extensions to GR, illustrate these with two specific examples, and discuss the resulting observational and theoretical obstacles. This article compr...

متن کاملAccelerating Universe in Modified Theories of Gravity
We study cosmologies in modified theories of gravity considering Lagrangian density f(R) which is a polynomial function of scalar curvature (R) in the Einstein-Hilbert action in vacuum. The field equation obtained from the modified action corresponding to a Robertson-Walker metric is highly non-linear and not simple enough to obtain analytic solution. Consequently we adopt a numerical technique...
