Figure 36: MOND phantom dark matter scaling relations in ellipticals. The circles display central
density , and central phase space density of the phantom dark halos predicted by MOND
for different masses of baryonic Hernquist profiles (with scale-radius related to the effective
radius by ). The dotted lines are the scaling relations of [171], and the dashed lines
those of [454], which exhibit a very large observational scatter in good agreement with the MOND
prediction [363]. Image reproduced by permission from [363], copyright by ESO.
