TO: MODIFIED NEWTONIAN DYNAMICS (MOND) AT ALL ASTROPHYSICAL SCALES
SESZIONE DI TORINO
MOND needs non-baryonic DM (classical neutrinos are too light) in galaxy clusters as demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt by the bullet cluster. I present a no-frills model which couples MOND with an 11eV sterile neutrino that fits the constraints of cluster DM, the lack of DM in spirals and ellipticals, the acoustic peaks of the CMB and (potentially) the formation of structure. This is the only cosmological model which can match data on all astrophysical scales and, unlike the Lambda-CDM model, it is testable.
