A Model of f(R) Gravity as an Alternative for Dark Matter in Spiral Galaxies

Abstract

In this paper we study consistent solutions of spherically symmetric space in metric f(R) gravity theory. Here we inversely obtain a generic action from metric solutions that describe flat rotation curves in spiral galaxies without dark matter. Then we show that obtained solutions are in conformity with Tully-Fisher relation and modified Newtonian dynamics, which are two strong constraints in justification of flat rotation curves in spiral galaxies.
