Scalar-tensor-vector-gravity and NGC-1277
arXiv:2308.09838 · doi:10.1093/mnras/stad3400
Abstract
NGC1277 is a compact but massive lenticular galaxy that shows no signs of the presence of dark matter. We find that this galaxy's behavior is consistent not only with Newtonian dynamics, but also with the predictions of Scalar--Tensor--Vector--Gravity, also known as MOG (MOdified Gravity). The compact size of the galaxy, in combination with its large mass, ensures that there are no observable deviations between the predictions of Newtonian and MOG orbital velocities within the galaxy's visible radius.
