Exact solutions and approximations of MOND fields of disc galaxies

Exact solutions and approximations of MOND fields of disc galaxies

We consider models of thin discs (with and without bulges) in the Bekenstein-Milgrom formulation of MOND as a modification of Newtonian gravity. Analytic solutions are found for the full gravitational fields of Kuzmin discs, and of disc-plus-bulge generalizations of them. For all these models a simple relation between the MOND …
