用低表面亮度星系探测器探测星系形成和暗物质

Testing Galaxy Formation and Dark Matter with Low Surface Brightness Galaxies

Stacy McGaugh

摘要:

星系是宇宙的基本结构元素;星系形成理论试图解释这些结构是如何形成的。我追溯了星系形成的一些基本思想,强调了非重子冷暗物质的必要性。早期理论的许多元素在与低表面亮度星系的观测接触时无法幸存下来,导致需要像反馈这样的辅助假设。失败的原因往往可以追溯到暗物质的替代物--修正牛顿动力学(MOND)令人惊讶的预测成功。虽然暗物质模型在适应观测方面是灵活的,但它们不提供MOND的预测能力。如果宇宙是由冷的暗物质组成的,为什么MOND的预测是正确的?

英文摘要:

Galaxies are the basic structural element of the universe; galaxy formation theory seeks to explain how these structures came to be. I trace some of the foundational ideas in galaxy formation, with emphasis on the need for non-baryonic cold dark matter. Many elements of early theory did not survive contact with observations of low surface brightness galaxies, leading to the need for auxiliary hypotheses like feedback. The failure points often trace to the surprising predictive successes of an alternative to dark matter, the Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). While dark matter models are flexible in accommodating observations, they do not provide the predictive capacity of MOND. If the universe is made of cold dark matter, why does MOND get any predictions right?
