Towards understanding astrophysical effects of nuclear symmetry energy

BA Li, PG Krastev, DH Wen, NB Zhang - The European Physical Journal A, 2019 - Springer
Determining the Equation of State (EOS) of dense neutron-rich nuclear matter is a shared
goal of both nuclear physics and astrophysics. Except possible phase transitions, the density …

The baryonic Tully–Fisher relation of gas-rich galaxies as a test of ΛCDM and MOND

SS McGaugh - The Astronomical Journal, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org

Can dark matter be a Bose–Einstein condensate?

CG Boehmer, T Harko - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We consider the possibility that the dark matter which is required to explain the dynamics of
the neutral hydrogen clouds at large distances from the galactic centre could be in the form …

Magnetic fields of galaxies

A Ruzmaikin - Interstellar Magnetic Fields: Observation and Theory, 1988 - Springer
Intensity of galactic magnetic field is minute. it is measured in microgausses. However, the
field has a record scale measured in ki-loparsecs.(Unfortunately, the Guinness book does …

The dark matter problem from f (R) gravity viewpoint

S Capozziello, M De Laurentis - Annalen der Physik, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
An alternative view to the dark matter puzzle is represented by Extended Theories of Gravity.
The approach consists in addressing issues like dark components from the point of view of …

Dark matter as a Weyl geometric effect

P Burikham, T Harko, K Pimsamarn, S Shahidi - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We investigate the possibility that the observed behavior of test particles outside galaxies,
which is usually explained by assuming the existence of dark matter, is the result of the …

Dark matter from gravity

R Zaregonbadi, M Farhoudi, N Riazi - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We consider the f (R, T) modified theory of gravity, in which the gravitational Lagrangian is
given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar and the trace of the energy-momentum …
