Outer regions of galaxy clusters as a new probe to test modifications to gravity
Minahil Adil Butt, Sandeep Haridasu, Antonaldo Diaferio +4
We apply the caustic technique to samples of galaxy clusters stacked in redshift space to estimate the gravitational potential in the cluster's outer region and test modifications…
A Relativistic Tensorial Model for Fractional Interaction between Dark Matter and Gravity
Francesco Benetti, Andrea Lapi, Samuele Silveravalle +5
In a series of recent papers it was shown that several aspects of Dark Matter (DM) phenomenology, such as the velocity profiles of individual dwarfs and spiral galaxies, the scalin…
Modified gravity in galaxy clusters: Joint analysis of Hydrostatics and Caustics
Minahil Adil Butt, Sandeep Haridasu, Yacer Boumechta +4
We present a comprehensive joint analysis of two distinct methodologies for measuring the mass of galaxy clusters: hydrostatic measurements and caustic techniques. We show that by…
Ultra-compact Objects of Non-minimally Coupled Dark Matter
Francesco Benetti, Andrea Lapi, Samuele Silveravalle +1
In the framework of a collisionless dark matter fluid which is non-minimally coupled to gravity, we investigate the existence and properties of static, spherically symmetric soluti…
