Cosmological extra dimensions can mimic dark matter I. Dark matter in galaxies
Mattia Villani
Abstract
We present a simple model with a n + 4-dimensional metric with compactified extra dimensions with a space dependent radius R. We show that changes in the profile of R are sourced by (visible) matter density and Newtonian potential. We can reproduce rotation curves of spiral galaxies and provide an expression for R. In order to test our hypothesis, we propose six experiments.
