Orbits in a Neighboring Dwarf Galaxy According to MOND
We study the orbits in the MOND theory within a dwarf galaxy of mass Md ∼ 108M⊙ at a distance of ∼ 100kpc from a neighboring galaxy of mass Mg = 5 × 1011M⊙, such as ours. It is assumed that a second mass m << Md is gravitationally bound to Md by a previously calculated potential for the MOND theory. This potential is obtained for a free falling mass Md in a constant external gravitational accel...
متن کاملX-ray observations of the galaxy cluster PKS 0745-191: To the virial radius, and beyond
We measure X-ray emission from the outskirts of the cluster of galaxies PKS 0745-191 with Suzaku, determining radial profiles of density, temperature, entropy, gas fraction, and mass. These measurements extend beyond the virial radius for the first time, providing new information about cluster assembly and the diffuse intracluster medium out to ∼ 1.5r200 (r200 ≃ 1.7 Mpc ≃ 15). The temperature i...
متن کاملWeak Lensing of Galaxy Clusters in MOND
We study weak gravitational lensing of galaxy clusters in terms of the MOND (MOdified Newtonian Dynamics) theory. We calculate shears and convergences of background galaxies for three clusters (A1689, CL0024+1654, CL1358+6245) and the mean profile of 42 SDSS (Sloan Digital Sky Survey) clusters and compare them with observational data. The mass profile is modeled as a sum of X-ray gas, galaxies ...
متن کاملNew constraints on MOND from galaxy clusters
We revisit the application of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) to galaxy clusters. We confront the high quality X-ray data for eight clusters of galaxies observed by the XMM-Newton satellite with the predictions of MOND. We obtain ratios of the Newtonian dynamical mass to the MOND mass of Md/Mm = 1.09 ± 0.08 at r ∼ 0.1 Rvir increasing to Md/Mm = 1.57± 0.24 in the outer parts (i.e r ∼ 0.5 Rvir...
متن کاملA Sharp Form of the Virial Theorem
In its classical form the Virial Theorem concerns the behavior of a system S of n mass particles acting under Newtonian attraction in such a fashion that the center of mass 0 remains fixed and the potential energy V satisfies V> — <*> for all positive time t. The latter condition, which is not always stated explicitly, guarantees the analyticity of the coordinates of the particles in the indepe...
