The phenomenological basis for Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) is the radial-acceleration-relation (RAR) between the observed acceleration, $a=V^2_{rot}(r)/r$, and the acceleration accounted for by the observed baryons (stars and cold gas), $a_{bar}=V_{bar}^2(r)/r$. We show that the RAR arises naturally in the NIHAO sample of 89 high-resolution LCDM cosmological galaxy formation simulations. The overall scatter from NIHAO is just 0.079 dex, consistent with observational constraints. However, we show that the scatter depends on stellar mass. At high masses ($10^9 <M_{star} <10^{11}$ Msun) the simulated scatter is just $simeq 0.04$ dex, increasing to $simeq 0.11$ dex at low masses ($10^7 < M_{star} <10^{9}$Msun). Observations show a similar dependence for the intrinsic scatter. At high masses the intrinsic scatter is consistent with the zero scatter assumed by MOND, but at low masses the intrinsic scatter is non-zero, strongly disfavoring MOND. Applying MOND to our simulations yields remarkably good fits to most of the circular velocity profiles. In cases of mild disagreement the stellar mass-to-light ratio and/or distance can be tuned to yield acceptable fits, as is often done in observational mass models. In dwarf galaxies with $M_{star}sim10^6$Msun MOND breaks down, predicting lower accelerations than observed and in our LCDM simulations. The assumptions that MOND is based on (e.g., asymptotically flat rotation curves, zero intrinsic scatter in the RAR), are approximately, but not exactly, true in LCDM. Thus if one wishes to go beyond Newtonian dynamics there is more freedom in the RAR than assumed by MOND.

We show that in the Dirac-Milne universe (a matter-antimatter symmetric universe where the two components repel each other), rotation curves are generically flat beyond the characteristic distance of about 3 virial radii, and that a Tully-Fisher rela
tion with exponent $approx 3$ is satisfied. Using 3D simulations with a modified version of the RAMSES code, we show that the Dirac-Milne cosmology presents a Faber-Jackson relation with a very small scatter and an exponent equal to $approx 3$ between the mass and the velocity dispersion. We also show that the mass derived from the rotation curves assuming Newtonian gravity is systematically overestimated compared to the mass really present. We also show that the Dirac-Milne universe, featuring a polarization between its matter and antimatter components, presents a behavior similar to that of MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics), characterized by an additional surface gravity compared to the Newtonian case. We show that in the Dirac-Milne universe, at the present epoch, the intensity of the additional gravitational field $g_{am}$ due to the presence of clouds of antimatter is of the order of a few $10^{-11}$ m/s$^2$, similar to the characteristic acceleration of MOND. We study the evolution of this additional acceleration $g_{am}$ and show that it depends on the redshift, and is therefore not a fundamental constant. Combined with its known concordance properties on SNIa luminosity distance, age, nucleosynthesis and structure formation, the Dirac-Milne cosmology may then represent an interesting alternative to the $Lambda$CDM, MOND, and other scenarios for explaining the Dark Matter and Dark Energy conundrum.
Dark Matter (DM) and Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) models of rotationally supported galaxies lead to curves with different geometries in $(g_{N},g_{tot})$-space ($g2$-space). Here $g_{tot}$ is the total acceleration and $g_{N}$ is the accelerati
on as obtained from the baryonic matter via Newtonian dynamics. In MOND modified inertia (MI) models the curves in $g2$-space are closed with zero area and so curve segments at radii $rgeq r_{N}$ (large radii) and $r< r_{N}$ (small radii) coincide, where $r_{N}$ is the radius where $g_N$ is greatest. In DM models with cored density profiles where $g_{tot}$ is also zero at the galactic centre, the curves are again closed, but the area of the closed curves are in general non-zero because the curve segments at radii $rgeq r_{N}$ and $r<r_{N}$ do not coincide. Finally in DM models with cuspy density profiles such as the NFW profile where $g_{tot}$ is formally non-zero at the galactic origin the curves are open, and again the curve segments at radii $rgeq r_{N}$ and $r< r_{N}$ do not coincide. We develop a test of whether data at small and large radii coincide and investigate rotation curves from the SPARC database in order to discriminate between the above geometries. Due to loosely quantified systematic uncertainties we do not underline the result of the test, but instead conclude that the test illustrates the relevance of this type of analysis and demonstrate the ability to discriminate between the considered DM and MI models in this way.
The Lambda-CDM cosmological model is succesful at reproducing various independent sets of observations concerning the large-scale Universe. This model is however currently, and actually in principle, unable to predict the gravitational field of a gal
axy from it observed baryons alone. Indeed the gravitational field should depend on the relative contribution of the particle dark matter distribution to the baryonic one, itself depending on the individual assembly history and environment of the galaxy, including a lot of complex feedback mechanisms. However, for the last thirty years, Milgroms formula, at the heart of the MOND paradigm, has been consistently succesful at predicting rotation curves from baryons alone, and has been resilient to all sorts of observational tests on galaxy scales. We show that the few individual galaxy rotation curves that have been claimed to be highly problematic for the predictions of Milgroms formula, such as Holmberg II or NGC 3109, are actually false alarms. We argue that the fact that it is actually possible to predict the gravitational field of galaxies from baryons alone presents a challenge to the current Lambda-CDM model, and may indicate a breakdown of our understanding of gravitation and dynamics, and/or that the actual lagrangian of the dark sector is very different and richer than currently assumed. On the other hand, it is obvious that any alternative must also, in fine, reproduce the successes of the Lambda-CDM model on large scales, where this model is so well-tested that it presents by itself a challenge to any such alternative.
We investigate a sub-sample of the rotation curves consisting of 45 HSB non-bulgy spiral galaxies selected from SPARC (Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves) database by using two dark halo models (NFW and Burkert) and MOdified Newtonian Dy
namics (MOND) theory. Among these three models, the core-dominated Burkert halo model provides a better description of the observed data ($chi_{ u}^2$ = 0.33) than Navarro, Frenk and White (NFW, $chi_{ u}^2$= 0.45) and MOND model ($chi_{ u}^2$ = 0.58). So our results show that, for dark halo models, the selected 45 HSB non-bulgy spiral galaxies prefer a cored density profile to the cuspy one (NFW); We also positively find that there is a correlation between $rho_0$ and $r_0$ in Burkert model. For MOND fits, when we take $a_0$ as a free parameter, there is no obvious correlation between $a_0$ and disk central surface brightness at 3.6 $mu m$ of these HSB spiral galaxies, which is in line with the basic assumption of MOND that $a_0$ should be a universal constant. Interestingly, our fittings gives $a_0$ an average value of $(0.74 pm 0.45) times 10^{- 8}rm {cm s^{- 2}}$ if we exclude the three highest values in the sample, which is smaller than the standard value ($1.21 times 10^{-8}rm {cm s^{- 2}}$).
We examine the circular velocity profiles of galaxies in {Lambda}CDM cosmological hydrodynamical simulations from the EAGLE and LOCAL GROUPS projects and compare them with a compilation of observed rotation curves of galaxies spanning a wide range in
mass. The shape of the circular velocity profiles of simulated galaxies varies systematically as a function of galaxy mass, but shows remarkably little variation at fixed maximum circular velocity. This is especially true for low-mass dark matter-dominated systems, reflecting the expected similarity of the underlying cold dark matter haloes. This is at odds with observed dwarf galaxies, which show a large diversity of rotation curve shapes, even at fixed maximum rotation speed. Some dwarfs have rotation curves that agree well with simulations, others do not. The latter are systems where the inferred mass enclosed in the inner regions is much lower than expected for cold dark matter haloes and include many galaxies where previous work claims the presence of a constant density core. The cusp vs core issue is thus better characterized as an inner mass deficit problem than as a density slope mismatch. For several galaxies the magnitude of this inner mass deficit is well in excess of that reported in recent simulations where cores result from baryon-induced fluctuations in the gravitational potential. We conclude that one or more of the following statements must be true: (i) the dark matter is more complex than envisaged by any current model; (ii) current simulations fail to reproduce the effects of baryons on the inner regions of dwarf galaxies; and/or (iii) the mass profiles of inner mass deficit galaxies inferred from kinematic data are incorrect.
