Galactic Charge

TL;DR

This paper explores the hypothesis that a galaxy's core and periphery carry opposite electrical charges to explain its rotation anomalies, offering a potential alternative to dark matter explanations.

Contribution

It proposes a model where galactic rotation anomalies are explained by a charged core and periphery, providing a new perspective on galactic dynamics.

Findings

Calculated the charge needed to account for rotation curves.

Suggests electrical charge distribution could influence galactic rotation.

Offers an alternative explanation to dark matter for galaxy behavior.

Abstract

We investigate the hypothesis that the core of a galaxy has a positive electrical charge with an equal and opposite negative charge distributed over the galactic periphery. We present a determination of the amount of charge needed to explain the apparent anomalous rotation behaviour.
