Variation of the Energy Scale: an Alternative to Dark Matter

Authors: Jo Ke

We put forward the conjecture that the energy scale can vary from location to location. This simple idea is all that we need to explain those astronomical situations where dark matter is assumed to exist. So, without invoking dark matter, or postulating the existence of exotic particles, or changing the laws of gravity, we can explain: galaxy rotation curves; the high velocities of galaxies in clusters; collisions between clusters of galaxies; gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters; the fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background; physical cosmology; the growth of structure. If variations of the energy scale exist, then we can make a series of predictions, many of which can be tested now. We have nothing to say about dark energy.
