Ariel Edery McGill University MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics) is an empirically motivated modification of Newtonian gravity proposed by Milgram to explain the galactic rotation curves without recourse to dark matter. MOND has had phenomenal success at explaining galactic rotation curves using only one parameter. I will discuss attempts made at building a field theory with MOND as the weak field non-relativistic limit.
