Galaxy Rotation Curves

Flat galaxy rotation curves and the accelerating Universe both imply the existence of a critical acceleration, which is of the same order of magnitude in both the cases, in spite of the galactic and cosmic length scales being vastly different. Yet, it is customary to explain galactic acceleration by invoking gravitationally bound dark matter, and cosmic acceleration by invoking a "repulsive" dark energy. Instead, might it not be the case that the flatness of rotation curves and the acceleration of the Universe have a common cause? In this essay we propose a modified theory of gravity. By applying the theory on galactic scales we demonstrate flat rotation curves without dark matter, and by applying it on cosmological scales we demonstrate cosmic acceleration without dark energy.

For a sample of 21 Sc galaxies with a wide range of luminosities, of radii, and of masses, W. K. Ford and I have obtained spectra and determined rotation curves. By their kinematical behavior in their central regions, the Sc’s can be separated into two groups. Some galaxies, generally small and of low luminosity, have shallow central velocity gradients, reflecting their low central masses and densities. Other galaxies, most often large ones of high luminosity, have steep central velocity gradients. One reason this separation by central velocity gradients is of interest is because these galaxies exhibit other significant spectral differences which go hand-in-hand with the kinematical differences.The small, low luminosity galaxies show emission lines of Hα and [NII], with nuclear Ha sharp and stronger than [NII], and little or no stellar nuclear continuum, just as conventional HII regions. In contrast, the high luminosity galaxies show broad nuclear emission, with [NII] stronger than Ha. These galaxies have a strong red stellar continuum, arising from a red stellar population. The cause of the Hα[NII] intensity reversal in the nuclei of some galaxies remains unknown. However, the strong [NII] emission in generally high luminosity galaxies with massive nuclei, nuclei which show strong red continua, suggests that [Nil] intensity correlates with nuclear luminosity, and in turn with the density and velocity properties of the nuclear populations. We would expect high velocity dispersions and high bulge luminosities for galaxies with strong nuclear [NII] and steep central velocity gradients.

Relativistic Analogue

The dark matter problem is one of the most pressing problems in modern physics. As there is no well-established claim from a direct detection experiment supporting the existence of the illusive dark matter that has been postulated to explain the flat rotation curves of galaxies, and since the whole issue of an alternative theory of gravity remains controversial, it may be worth to reconsider the familiar ground of general relativity (GR) itself for a possible way out. It has recently been discovered that a skew-symmetric rank-three tensor field — the Lanczos tensor field — that generates the Weyl tensor differentially, provides a proper relativistic analogue of the Newtonian gravitational force. By taking account of its conformal invariance, the Lanczos tensor leads to a modified acceleration law which can explain, within the framework of GR itself, the flat rotation curves of galaxies without the need for any dark matter whatsoever.
