The modified gravity models in
galactic and subgalactic scales
Hossein Haghi
(IASBS)
Abstract:
I will give you a brief report of my two recent works:
1- "Distant star clusters of the Milky Way in MOND"
We determine the mean velocity dispersion of six Galactic
outer halo
globular clusters, AM 1, Eridanus, Pal 3, Pal 4, Pal 15 and
Arp 2,
in the weak acceleration regime to test classical vs.
modified
Newtonian dynamics (MOND).
2- "Initial mass function as a tool to distinguish between
gravity models"
We propose a tool to discriminate a) between different
alternative
theories of gravity, and b) between different IMF's in
Stellar Population
Synthesis contexts.
