Virial theorem and the dynamics of clusters of galaxies in the brane world models

A version of the virial theorem, which takes into account the effects of the noncompact extra dimensions, is derived in the framework of the brane world models. In the brane world scenario, the four-dimensional effective Einstein equation has some extra terms, called dark radiation and dark pressure, respectively, which arise …
