A statistical investigation of the mass discrepancy–acceleration relation
We use the mass discrepancy–acceleration relation (the correlation between the ratio of total-to-visible mass and acceleration in galaxies; MDAR) to test the galaxy–halo connection. We analyse the MDAR using a set of 16 statistics that quantify its four most important features: shape, scatter, the p...
