MOND vs. Newtonian dynamics in early-type galaxies. The case of NGC 4649 (M60)

S. Samurovic, M. M. Cirkovic

摘要:

内容:关于暗物质和MOND在早型星系中的应用,我们研究了MOND理论,通过比较它的预测,恒定的质量-光比的模型,与早型星系NGC 4649的观测数据。目的:我们研究NGC 3379和NGC 1399的测量是否是典型的早期类型的系统,我们测试的假设牛顿常数M/L比的基础上发表的大多数模型。方法:我们用NGC 4649的球状星团作为质量示踪剂。Jeans方程是针对MOND和恒定质光比假设计算的。球对称的假设和计算进行各向同性和各向异性的情况下。结果如下:我们发现,与一个恒定的质光比的假设和不同的MOND模型的牛仔裤模型提供了很好的协议与观测值的速度色散。速度色散的最精确拟合是在B波段的质光比中获得的,它等于7,这意味着在这个星系的外部(超过3个有效半径)不需要大量的暗物质。我们还发现,切向各向异性是最有可能存在于NGC 4649。

英文摘要:

Context: Regarding the significant interest in both dark matter and the application of MOND to early-type galaxies, we investigate the MOND theory by comparing its predictions, for models of constant mass-to-light ratio, with observational data of the early-type galaxy NGC 4649. Aims: We study whether measurements for NGC 3379 and NGC 1399 are typical of early-type systems and we test the assumption of a Newtonian constant M/L ratio underlying most of the published models. Methods: We employ the globular clusters of NGC 4649 as a mass tracer. The Jeans equation is calculated for both MOND and constant mass-to-light ratio assumptions. Spherical symmetry is assumed and the calculations are performed for both isotropic and anisotropic cases. Results: We found that both Jeans models with the assumption of a constant mass-to-light ratio and different MOND models provide good agreement with the observed values of the velocity dispersion. The most accurate fits of the velocity dispersion were obtained for the mass-to-light ratio in the B-band, which was equal to 7, implying that there is no need for significant amounts of dark matter in the outer parts (beyond 3 effective radii) of this galaxy. We also found that tangential anisotropies are most likely present in NGC 4649.
