Ultra-light dark matter

EGM Ferreira - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2021 - Springer
Ultra-light dark matter is a class of dark matter models (DM), where DM is composed by
bosons with masses ranging from 10^-24\, eV< m< eV 10-24 eV< m< eV. These models …

History of dark matter

G Bertone, D Hooper - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2018 - APS
Although dark matter is a central element of modern cosmology, the history of how it became
accepted as part of the dominant paradigm is often ignored or condensed into an anecdotal …

Breakdown of the Newton–Einstein Standard Gravity at Low Acceleration in Internal Dynamics of Wide Binary Stars

KH Chae - The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
A gravitational anomaly is found at weak gravitational acceleration g N≲ 10− 9 ms− 2 from
analyses of the dynamics of wide binary stars selected from the Gaia DR3 database that …

New relativistic theory for modified Newtonian dynamics

C Skordis, T Złośnik - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We propose a relativistic gravitational theory leading to modified Newtonian dynamics, a
paradigm that explains the observed universal galactic acceleration scale and related …

A systematic approach to generalisations of General Relativity and their cosmological implications

L Heisenberg - Physics Reports, 2019 - Elsevier
A century ago, Einstein formulated his elegant and elaborate theory of General Relativity,
which has so far withstood a multitude of empirical tests with remarkable success …

Emergent gravity and the dark universe

EP Verlinde - SciPost Physics, 2017 - scipost.org
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the
entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best …

[HTML][HTML] From galactic bars to the hubble tension: Weighing up the astrophysical evidence for milgromian gravity

I Banik, H Zhao - Symmetry, 2022 - mdpi.com
Astronomical observations reveal a major deficiency in our understanding of physics—the
detectable mass is insufficient to explain the observed motions in a huge variety of systems …

Silhouette of M87*: a new window to peek into the world of hidden dimensions

I Banerjee, S Chakraborty, S SenGupta - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
The recent observation of the shadow of the supermassive black hole M87*, located at the
center of the M87 galaxy, by the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration has opened up a …

Strong constraints on the gravitational law from Gaia DR3 wide binaries

I Banik, C Pittordis, W Sutherland… - Monthly Notices of …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
We test Milgromian dynamics (MOND) using wide binary stars (WBs) with separations of 2–
30 kAU. Locally, the WB orbital velocity in MOND should exceed the Newtonian prediction …

Testing the strong equivalence principle: detection of the external field effect in rotationally supported galaxies

KH Chae, F Lelli, H Desmond… - The Astrophysical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
The strong equivalence principle (SEP) distinguishes general relativity (GR) from other
viable theories of gravity. The SEP demands that the internal dynamics of a self-gravitating …
