Abstract:Models of 'modified-inertia' formulation of MOND are described and applied to nonrelativistic many-body systems. Whereas the inter-body forces are Newtonian, the expression for their inertia is modified from the Newtonian ma to comply with the basic tenets of MOND. This results in time-nonlocal equations of motion. Momentum, angular momentum, and energy are (nonlocally) defined for bodies, and the total values are conserved for isolated many-body systems. The models make all the salient MOND predictions. Yet, … Show more
