Baryonic Tully-Fisher test of Grumiller's modified gravity model
arXiv:2101.08721 · doi:10.1134/S0202289321020067
Abstract
We test the Grumiller's quantum motivated modified gravity model, which at large distances modifies the Newtonian potential and describes the galactic rotation curves of disk galaxies in terms of a Rindler acceleration term without the need of any dark matter, against the baryonic Tully-Fisher feature that relates the total baryonic mass of a galaxy with flat rotation velocity of the galaxy. We estimate the Rindler acceleration parameter from observed baryonic mass versus rotation velocity data of a sample of sixty galaxies. Grumiller's model is found to describe the observed data reasonably well.
