The Missing Mass of the Milky Way Galaxy
Abstract
This work verifies the principle that gravitation is caused by energy and not simply by mass alone. A model is proposed in which cosmic ray protons flow radially through the galaxy. The resulting electric field energy creates a gravitational force, in addition to the conventional Newtonian force. The model yields a rotation curve that agrees in detail with the experimental curve. The total electric field energy is calculated. It is the missing mass of the galaxy.
