Key Points

  • This research aims to present a new theoretical model for understanding galactic rotation curves without invoking dark matter.
  • Develops Quantum Fluid Spacetime Theory (QFST) to model galactic behavior as a turbulent fluid.
  • Analyzes the effects of rotating galaxies to produce flat rotation curves through pressure gradients.
  • Fits the model to observational data from NGC 3198 and compares it with traditional dark matter models.
  • Achieves a chi2_red of 0.678 for the proposed model, indicating a good fit to observational data.
  • The NFW (Navarro-Frenk-White) model shows a chi2_red of 1.219, suggesting QFST provides a better explanation for rotation curves.

Abstract

We propose Quantum Fluid Spacetime Theory (QFST), a framework in which spacetime at galactic scales behaves as a turbulent, viscous fluid. A rotating galaxy induces a large-scale vortex generating pressure gradients that naturally produce flat rotation curves without dark matter particles. Proof of concept fit on NGC 3198 achieves chi2ᵣed = 0. 678 vs NFW chi2ᵣed = 1. 219. Code available at GitHub.
