A Weyl geometric scalar field approach to the dark sector
This paper explores the dark sector (dark matter and dark energy) from the perspective of Weyl geometric scalar tensor theory (integrable Weyl geometry). In order to account for the galactic dynamics
The Baryonic Tully–Fisher Relation in the Local Group and the Equivalent Circular Velocity of Pressure-supported Dwarfs
• Physics
The Astronomical Journal
• 2021
We explore the baryonic Tully–Fisher relation in the Local Group. Rotationally-supported Local Group galaxies adhere precisely to the relation defined by more distant galaxies. For pressure-supported

THE BARYONIC TULLY-FISHER RELATION OF GALAXIES WITH EXTENDED ROTATION CURVES AND THE STELLAR MASS OF ROTATING GALAXIES
I investigate the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation for a sample of galaxies with extended 21 cm rotation curves spanning the range 20 km s-1 Vf ? 300 km s-1. A variety of scalings of the stellar
The infrared luminosity/H I velocity-width relation and its application to the distance scale.
• Physics
• 1979
The Tully-Fisher relation between the luminosity of late-type galaxies and their global 21 cm velocity widths has been investigated with infrared photometry. Multiaperature magnitudes at H
Star formation and the interstellar medium in low surface brightness galaxies; 1, Oxygen abundances and abundance gradients in low surface brightness disk galaxies
• Physics
• 1998
Submitted to: Astron. Astrophys. Abstract: We present measurements of the oxygen abundances in 64 HII regions in 12 LSB galaxies. We find that oxygen abundances are low. No regions with solar
Testing modified Newtonian dynamics with low surface brightness galaxies : Rotation curve fits
• Physics
• 1998
We present modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) fits to 15 rotation curves of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies. Good fits are readily found, although for a few galaxies minor adjustments to the
Predictions and Outcomes for the Dynamics of Rotating Galaxies
A review is given of a priori predictions made for the dynamics of rotating galaxies. One theory - MOND - has had many predictions corroborated by subsequent observations. While it is sometimes
THE BARYONIC TULLY-FISHER RELATION OF GAS-RICH GALAXIES AS A TEST OF ΛCDM AND MOND
The baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) is an empirical relation between baryonic mass and rotation velocity in disk galaxies. It provides tests of galaxy formation models in ΛCDM and of
A massive blow for ΛCDM – the high redshift, mass, and collision velocity of the interacting galaxy cluster El Gordo contradicts concordance cosmology
• Physics
• 2020
El Gordo (ACT-CL J0102-4915) is an extremely massive galaxy cluster ($M_{200} \approx 3 \times 10^{15}$ $M_{\odot}$) at redshift $z = 0.87$ composed of two subclusters with mass ratio 3.6 merging at
