Where Can I Find Up-to-Date Resources for Studying MOND Theory?

In summary, when looking for resources to study MOND, it may be helpful to consult Stacy McGaugh's list of theory papers and pay attention to technical points made by @strangerep. Additionally, McGaugh suggests that the "acceleration discrepancy" is a useful concept to understand MOND and that the "aether-scalar-tensor theory" by Skordis and Zlosnik is currently the most advanced explanation as it also accounts for the CMB power spectrum.

Can you recommend papers and books to study MOND? I know that a lot of MOND theories have been ruled out by recent observations, so I don't know where to start without wasting time studying from outdated references.
I know GR from Carroll's book and cosmology from "Physical Foundations Of Cosmology"
Thank you

FAQ: Where Can I Find Up-to-Date Resources for Studying MOND Theory?

Where can I find the latest research papers on MOND theory?

You can find the latest research papers on MOND (Modified Newtonian Dynamics) theory on academic databases such as arXiv.org, which is a repository of electronic preprints (known as e-prints) approved for publication after moderation. Additionally, journals like "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society" and "The Astrophysical Journal" frequently publish papers on MOND and related topics.

Are there any dedicated websites or online communities for MOND theory?

Yes, there are several online communities and websites dedicated to MOND theory. The "MOND Pages" website, maintained by scientists in the field, provides a comprehensive overview of the theory, including links to relevant papers and discussions. Online forums like Physics Stack Exchange and Reddit's r/AskPhysics also have active communities where you can discuss MOND and ask questions.

Can I access MOND-related content through university libraries?

Most university libraries provide access to a wide range of scientific journals and databases where you can find MOND-related content. If you are affiliated with a university, you can use your institution's library portal to access these resources. Interlibrary loan services can also help you obtain papers that are not directly available through your library's subscriptions.

Are there any textbooks that cover MOND theory in detail?

Yes, there are several textbooks that cover MOND theory in detail. One notable example is "The Modified Newtonian Dynamics—MOND" by Mordehai Milgrom, who is the originator of the theory. Another useful resource is "Foundations of Space and Time: Reflections on Quantum Gravity" which includes discussions on alternative theories of gravity, including MOND.

What online courses or lectures are available for learning about MOND theory?

Online platforms such as Coursera, edX, and YouTube offer courses and lectures on astrophysics and cosmology that include sections on MOND theory. For more specialized content, you can look for recorded lectures and seminars from universities or research institutions. Websites like the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics often provide free access to recorded talks and lectures by leading scientists in the field.
