MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics) – Definition & Detailed Explanation – Cosmology Glossary

I. What is MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics)? Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) is a theory proposed as an alternative to the standard model of gravity, Newtonian dynamics. It suggests that the laws of gravity may need to be modified at very low accelerations, typically below 10^(-10) m/s^2. This modification is proposed to explain the observed discrepancies … Read more
