Abstract: (APS)
Galaxy rotation curves determined observationally out to a radius well beyond the galaxy cores can provide a critical test of modified gravity models without dark matter. The predicted rotational velocity curve obtained from scalar-vector-tensor gravity is in excellent agreement with data for the Milky Way without a dark matter halo, with a mass of
