Description
Summary:We here-in demonstrate that the proposed hitherto unknown gravitomagnetic dark-force that hypothetically explains the Flat Rotation Curves of Spiral Galaxies — this same force, explains very well, the logarithmic and as-well, the barred spiral shapes of spiral galaxies. That is, much in line with Edward Arthur Milne (1896-1950)’s 1946 ideas — albeit, on a radically and asymptotically different philosophical train of thought, the galactic disk is here assumed to be in a state of free-fall around the central bulge with the hypothetical gravitomagnetic dark-force being the dominant force determining all gravity-related dynamics of the disk, thus leading to logarithmic and barred spiral orbits, hence the shape of spiral galaxies.
