In this paper, the galactic rotation curve is analyzed as an effect of an accelerated reference frame. Such a rotation curve was the first evidence for the so-called dark matter. We show another possibility for this experimental data: non-inertial reference frame can fit the experimental curve. We also show that general relativity is not enough to completely explain that which encouraged alternatives paths such as the MOND approach. The accelerated reference frames hypothesis is well-suited to deal with the rotation curve of galaxies and perhaps has some role to play concerning other evidences for dark matter.

Galactic Rotation Curve

From their rotation curves, most spiral galaxies appear to have massive dark coronas. The inferred masses of these dark coronas are typically 5 to 10 times the mass of the underlying stellar component. I will review the evidence that our Galaxy also has a dark corona. Our position in the galactic disk makes it difficult to measure the galactic rotation curve beyond about 20 kpc from the galactic center. However it does allow several other indicators of the total galactic mass out to very large distances. It seems clear that the Galaxy does indeed have a massive dark corona. The data indicate that the enclosed mass within radius R increases like M(R) ≈ R(kpc) × 1010M⊙, out to a radius of more than 100 kpc. The total galactic mass is at least 12 × 1011M⊙.

Sizable Number

The major stumbling block in the determination of a rotation curve beyond the solar circle has been the lack of a suitable set of objects with well defined and independently measured distances and velocities which can be observed to large galactocentric radii. Two things have changed this situation. The first was the realization that essentially all local HII regions have associated molecular material. The second was the acquisition of reliable distances to the stars exciting a sizable number of HII regions at large galactocentric radii (Moffat, FitzGerald, and Jackson 1979). Because the velocity of the associated molecular gas can be measured very accurately by means of radio observations of CO, we have been able to overcome the past difficulties and have measured the rotation curve of the Galaxy to a galactocentric distance of 18 kpc.

AbstractA catalogue of open clusters is used to analyze the Galactic kinematics near the Sun. The Galactic open clusters, which are components of Galactic thin disk, were selected for our analysis. Based on kinematical data for around 270 Galactic open clusters, we found the Galactic rotation curve remains flat near the Sun. We also found Ve = 6.40±3.39 km s−1 inside the solar circle, which shows a weak trend of stars moving toward the Galactic anti-center.

This review of 21-cm studies of the galactic disk will be rather short, because several aspects of such studies are being covered by other speakers. These include the galactic rotation curve, the warp, the outer limits of the hydrogen layer, high-velocity clouds, large supernova remnants and comparisons between observations and theory with respect to density waves.
