Abstract: | Recently, the gravitational polarization of the quantum vacuum was proposed as alternative to the dark matter paradigm. In
the present paper we consider four benchmark measurements: the universality of the central surface density of galaxy dark
matter haloes, the cored dark matter haloes in dwarf spheroidal galaxies, the non-existence of dark disks in spiral galaxies
and distribution of dark matter after collision of clusters of galaxies (the Bullet cluster is a famous example). Only some
of these phenomena (but not all of them) can (in principle) be explained by the dark matter and the theories of modified gravity.
However, we argue that the framework of the gravitational polarization of the quantum vacuum allows the understanding of the
totality of these phenomena. |
