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.
