Title:
Exploring the MOND paradigm
Date: Wednesday, January 28th, 2009
Time: 12:00
Venue: Villa Bazzoni
***********************************************************
Abstract:
The MOND (MOdified Newtonian Dynamics) paradigm is an alternative to the
standard model invoking dark matter. After introducing the basis of this
model, I will review some applications in an observational context. Then
I will present some numerical simulations of galaxies, in the framework of
the modified gravity.
