Abstract

The non-Keplerian rotation of the galaxies is actually among the most challenging troubles of the current theories with space and gravitation. The aim of this work is showing that the origin of this impasse is a wrong view about the nature of space and the gravitational physics. The Higgs theory introduces the real Higgs Quantum Space (HQS), giving mass to the elementary particles. This HQS thus rules the inertial motion of matter and propagates light. It is locally the ultimate reference for rest and for motions and thus directly involved in the gravitational physics. Recent experimental observations, achieved with the help of the tightly synchronized atomic clocks in orbit, demonstrate that such a real HQS effectively exists and is circulating round earth and the sun according to a Keplerian velocity field, consistent with the planetary motions. This directly explains the null results of the light anisotropy experiments and accurately creates the observed gravitational dynamics on earth and in the solar system. Specifically the form of the galactic velocity field, created by the orbiting stars, is shown to deviate considerably from the Keplerian form, which explains the observed non-Keplerian rotation of the galaxies without the need of dark matter.

Highlights

  • The distribution of the visible matter within galaxies is rather different from that of a compact astronomical body like our sun

  • Almost the whole mass of a galaxy is orbiting in the form of stars round the galactic nucleus under the collective self-consistent gravitational field, created by them

  • A series of clearcut experimental observations, achieved with the help of the tightly synchronized atomic clocks in orbit, appoint other difficulties, some of which are even much more deleterious than the impasse with the galactic rotation. This lets clear that the only possible way to solve the impasses with gravity and the galactic gravitational dynamics is disclosing the true nature of the gravitational fields

Summary

Introduction

The distribution of the visible matter within galaxies is rather different from that of a compact astronomical body like our sun. The amount of such dark matter, necessary to account for the observed galactic rotation rate, is estimated to be about 5 times larger than that of the total visible matter This must be seen as a measure of the wrongness of the current view about the nature of space and the gravitational physics. The unsolvable impasse of the current gravitational theories with the galactic gravitational dynamics arises mainly from the fact that within the galactic disk the stars move along circular orbits in the absence of a central force field. A series of clearcut experimental observations, achieved with the help of the tightly synchronized atomic clocks in orbit, appoint other difficulties, some of which are even much more deleterious than the impasse with the galactic rotation This lets clear that the only possible way to solve the impasses with gravity and the galactic gravitational dynamics is disclosing the true nature of the gravitational fields
