Abstract
The definitive negative results of various direct searches for dark matter particles and non-observation of them has increasingly indicated that we should consider alternate models like the Modification of Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and Modification of Newtonian Gravity (MONG). It is puzzling how the Oort cloud, despite its great distance from the Sun, is gravitationally bound to the Sun’s gravity. In this work, we suggest that this could be explained by the modifications to Newtonian dynamics (MOND) and to gravity (MONG).
