摘要

We test and explore a Modified Universe Dynamics (MOUND) formula recently proposed by the author. We show that, similarly to Milgrom’s Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND), it is successful in accounting for the mass discrepancy in spiral galaxies, and it predicts the Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation (BTFR) and the Radial Acceleration Relation (RAR). Contrary to Milgrom’s MOND, MOUND also explains the dynamics of galaxy clusters and does not rely on an empirical interpolating function or an ad hoc acceleration parameter.
