News concerning MOND laws

Astro Seminar November 2016 MOND  basic tenets

• A theory of dynamics (gravity/inertia) involving a new constant a0 (beside G, ...)

• Standard limit (a0 → 0): The Newtonian limit

• Scale invariance: (t, r) → λ(t, r)

MOND limit : a0 → ∞, A0 ≡ Ga0 fixed (G → 0):

a0 is analog to c in relativity or ~ in QM

1 Scale invariance

X ma = F,F = mMG/r2

2 2 V ma /a0 = F,F = mMG/r , 1/2 or ma = F,F ∝ m(MGa0) /r

2 MOND laws of galactic dynamics

• Essentially follow from only the basic tenets of MOND

• Are independent as phenomenological lawse.g., if interpreted as eects of DM (just as the BB spectrum, the photo electric eect, H spectrum, superconduc- tivity, etc. are independent in QM)

• Pertain separately to properties of the DM alone (e.g., asymptotic atness, universal Σ), of the baryons alone (e.g., M − σ, maximum Σ), relations between the two (e.g., M − V )

• Revolve around a0 in dierent roles

3 Phenomenological lows derived from basic tenets alone

In QM, many laws were derived before the Schr. equation: BB spectrum, photoelecic eect, H-like atomic spectra, specic heat of solids, Induced and spontaneous emission/absorption.

All involve ~.

In pre GR: equivalence principle ⇒ gravitational redshift, light bending (c).

4 MOND: Baryonic density ⇒ dynamical one (not in DM)

r ⇒ g r ⇒ r ≡ − −1∇⃗ · g . ρb( ) M ( ) ρD( ) (4πG) M

5 Some of the MOND laws

• Asymptotic constancy of orbital velocity: V (r) → V∞ (H)

• Light-bending angle becomes asymptotically constant (H)

4 • The velocity mass relation: V∞ = MA0 (H-B)

4 • DML virial relation: σ ∼ MA0

2 • Discrepancy appears always at V /R = a0 (H-B)

• Isothermal spheres have surface densities Σ¯ . a0/G (B)

• The central surface density of dark halos is ≈ a0/2πG (H)

• Universal baryonic-dynamical central surface densities relation (H-B).

• Full rotation curves from baryon distribution alone (H-B)

10 Maximal Halo acceleration

Brada and Milgrom 1999: We have recently discovered that the modied Newtonian dynamics (MOND) implies some universal upper bound on the acceleration that can be produced by a dark halo, which, in a Newtonian analysis, is assumed to account for the eects of MOND. Not surprisingly, the limit is on the order of the acceleration constant of the theory.

gH/a0 = ν(y)y − y, y = gN /a0

.

ν(y ≫ 1) ≈ 1; ν(y ≪ 1) ≈ y−1/2

11 MOND prediction

ΣM is a universal accumulation value of ΣH, for high-surface density galaxies.

1/2 For low-surface-density systems ΣH ≈ 2.4(ΣbΣM ) , Σb = ρR. ∫ ∞ −1∇⃗ · g − g ΣH = 2 0 (4πG) ( N )dr = ∫ ∞ −2 ∂ { 2 − } ΣM 0 r ∂r r y[ν(y) 1] dr.

y(r) ≡ gN (r)/a0.

20 DM? The unexpected diversity of rotation curves

Oman, Kyle A.; Navarro, Julio F.; Fattahi, Azadeh; Frenk, Carlos S.; Sawala, Till; White, Simon D. M.; Bower, Richard; Crain, Robert A.; Furlong, Michelle; Schaller, Matthieu; Schaye, Joop; Theuns, Tom: (2015)

"...The shape of the circular velocity proles of simulated galaxies varies systematically as a function of galaxy mass, but shows remarkably little variation at xed maximum circular velocity. This is especially true for low-mass dark-matter-dominated systems, ... This is at odds with observed dwarf galaxies, which show a large diversity of rotation curve shapes, even at xed maximum rotation speed..."

"...We conclude that one or more of the following statements must be true: (i) the dark matter is more complex than envisaged by any current model; (ii) current simulations fail to reproduce the diversity in the eects of baryons on the inner regions of dwarf galaxies; and/or (iii) ... data are incorrect..."

Moti: "And, despite the diversity, they all sit on very tight "baryon-DM" relations."

24 II: Discovery

The feeble giant. Discovery of a large and diuse Milky Way dwarf galaxy in the of Crater

G. Torrealba, S. E. Koposov, V. Belokurov, M. Irwin (Submitted on 26 Jan 2016 (v1), last revised 1 Aug 2016 (this version, v4))

We announce the discovery of the Crater 2 dwarf galaxy, identied in imaging data of the VST ATLAS survey. Given its half-light radius of 1100 pc, Crater 2 is the fourth largest dwarf in the Milky Way, surpassed only by the LMC, SMC and the Sgr dwarf. With a total luminosity of MV ˜-8, this is also one of the lowest surface brightness dwarfs. Falling under the nominal detection boundary of 30 mag arcsec−2, it compares in nebulosity to the recently discovered Tuc 2 and Tuc IV and UMa II. Crater 2 is located ∼ 120 kpc from the Sun and appears to be aligned in 3-D with the enigmatic globular cluster Crater, the pair of ultra-faint dwarfs Leo IV and and the classical dwarf Leo II. We argue that such arrangement is probably not accidental and, in fact, can be viewed as the evidence for the accretion of the Crater-Leo group.

25 The velocity dispersion of Crater II: MOND prediction

MOND Prediction for the Velocity Dispersion of the `Feeble Giant' Crater II (McGAugh arXiv:1610.06189)

Abstract: Crater II is an unusual object among the dwarf satellite galaxies of the in that it has a very large size for its small luminosity. This provides a strong test of MOND, as Crater II should be in the deep MOND regime 2 −2 −1 2 −2 −1 (gin ≈ 34 km s kpc ≪ a0 = 3700 km s kpc ). Despite its great distance (≈ 120 kpc) from the Milky Way, the external eld of the host 2 −2 −1 (gex ≈ 282 km s kpc ) comfortably exceeds the internal eld. Consequently, Crater II should be subject to the external eld eect, a feature unique to MOND. This leads to the prediction of a very low velocity dispersion: +0.9 −1. σefe = 2.1−0.6 km s

26 The velocity dispersion of Crater II: recent measurement

Nordita workshop on Dark Matter Distribution in the Era of Gaia

From Twitter:

Walker: Very diuse MW satellite Crater 2 has very, very cold velocity dispersion of 2.5 km/s. Implies very low dynamical density

Walker: Crater 2's low velocity dispersion is also right where MOND predicts it.

Boylan-Kolchin: Crater 2's velocity dispersion is pretty much exactly what DudeDarkmatter (McGaugh) predicted recently using MOND

McGaugh: The MOND prediction was 2 km/s. Low because of EFE. Very hard to understand why this would happen in LCDM.
