Galactic Structures from Gravitational Radii

چکیده
We demonstrate that the existence of a Noether symmetry in f (R) theories of gravity gives rise to an additional gravitational radius, besides the standard Schwarzschild one, determining the dynamics at galactic scales. By this feature, it is possible to explain the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation and the rotation curve of gas-rich galaxies without the dark matter hypothesis. Furthermore, under the same standard, the Fundamental Plane of elliptical galaxies can be addressed.

The effect of variation of stellar dispersion velocities by the galactic latitude in interpreting gravitational microlensing observations
Our galaxy is a spiral galaxy and its stars are mostly in a thin disk and rotate around the galactic center. The vertical component of the dispersion velocity of stars is a function of the galactic latitude and decreases with increasing it. In the galactic Besancon model, this dependence is ignored and they just consider the dependence of dispersion velocity on the stellar age. Becanson model i...
متن کاملLight Curve of a Source Orbiting around a Black Hole: a Fitting-formula
A simple, analytical fitting-formula for a photometric light curve of a source of light orbiting around a black hole is presented. The formula is applicable for sources on a circular orbit with radius smaller than 45 gravitational radii from the black hole. This range of radii requires gravitational focusation of light rays and the Doppler effect to be taken into account with care. The fitting-...
متن کاملGalactic Rotation Described with Thin-Disk Gravitational Model
The measured rotation velocity profiles of mature spiral galaxies are successfully described with a gravitational model consisting of a thin axisymmetric disk of finte radius. The disk is assumed uniformly thin but with variable radial mass density. The governing integral equation is based on mechanical balance between Newtonian gravitational and centrifugal forces (due to galaxy rotation) at e...
متن کاملThe stability of the Circumnuclear Disk clouds in the Galactic Centre
The influence of rotation and magnetic fields on the physical properties of isothermal gas clouds is discussed. The presence of rotation and/or magnetic fields results in an increase of the critical cloud mass with respect to gravitational instability for clouds of a given temperature and external pressure. Rotating clouds have higher densities. Consequently, they are more stable against tidal ...
متن کاملXENON REU at Nevis Labs, Columbia University
It is believed that baryons, which form ordinary, luminous matter, only represent about 4% of the composition of the universe; the rest is comprised of about 73% dark energy and 23% dark matter, both of which currently have unknown sources. Dark energy explains the acceleration of the expansion of the universe, while dark matter accounts for some ”missing mass,” whose presence can be inferred f...
