Testing Noncommutativity-Like Model as a Galactic Density Profile

Noncommutative-like model (NC-like) is an interesting alternative inspired by string theory to understand and describe the velocity rotation curves of galaxies without the inclusion of dark matter particles. In a natural way, a Gaussian density profile emerges and is characterized by a parameter <...

description Noncommutative-like model (NC-like) is an interesting alternative inspired by string theory to understand and describe the velocity rotation curves of galaxies without the inclusion of dark matter particles. In a natural way, a Gaussian density profile emerges and is characterized by a parameter <inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><mo>θ</mo></semantics></math></inline-formula>, called the NC-like parameter. Hence we aim to confront the NC-like model with a galaxy sample of the Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves (SPARC) catalog to constrain the model parameters and compare statistically with the Einasto density profile using the Akaike and Bayesian information criteria. According to our results, some galaxies prefer the NC-like over the Einasto model while others do not support NC-like.
