MOND in galaxy groups: A superior sample
@article{Milgrom2019MONDIG, title={MOND in galaxy groups: A superior sample}, author={Mordehai Milgrom}, journal={Physical Review D}, year={2019} }
Intermediate-richness galaxy groups are an important test ground for MOND. First, they constitute a distinct type of galactic systems, with their own evolution histories and underlying physical processes; secondly, they probe little-chartered regions of parameter space, as they have baryonic masses similar to massive galaxies, and similar velocity dispersions, but much larger sizes -- similar to cluster cores (or even to clusters), but much lower dispersions. Importantly in the context of MOND…
