Roche Lobe Sizes in Deep-MOND Gravity

HongSheng Zhao

MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) is evolving from an empirical to a decent theory respecting fundamental physics after Bekenstein (2004) showed that lensing and Hubble expansion…

Roche Lobe Shapes for testing MOND-like Modified Gravity

HongSheng Zhao, LanLan Tian

Dark Matter (DM) theories and mass-tracing-light theories like MOND are by construction nearly degenerate on galactic scales, but not when it comes to the predicted shapes of Roche…

Testing Bekenstein's Relativistic MOND gravity with Lensing Data

HongSheng Zhao, David J. Bacon, Andy N. Taylor +1

We propose to use multiple-imaged gravitational lenses to set limits on gravity theories without dark matter, specificly TeVeS (Bekenstein 2004), a theory which is consistent with…

A review on success and problem of MOND on globular cluster scale

HongSheng Zhao

Many past attempts to kill MOND have only strengthened the theory. Better data on galaxy velocity curves clearly favor MOND (without fine-tuning) over cold dark matter. The usual c…

Tidal Destruction of The First Dark Microhalos

HongSheng Zhao, Dan Hooper, Garry W. Angus +2

We point out that the usual self-similarity in cold dark matter models is broken by encounters with individual normal galactic stars on sub-pc scale. Tidal heating and stripping mu…

Earth-mass dark halos are torn into dark mini-streams by stars

HongSheng Zhao, James E. Taylor, Joseph Silk +1

The promising neutralino dark matter particles generically condense into numerous earth-mass dark halos with smaller substructures suppressed by free streaming\cite{berezinsky}. Th…

Mini-dark halos with intermediate mass black holes

HongSheng Zhao, Joseph Silk

We argue that the Milky Way (MW) contains thousands intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) and minihalos with a fraction of IMBHs still being enshrouded in extremely dense mini-spik…
