Abstract

10.5281/zenodo.18249162 Dear Professor McGaugh, I've been working independently on an alternative approach to galactic dynamics and wanted to share it with you, as your work with SPARC has been incredibly inspiring. The attached one-page summary presents the Space-Matter Continuum theory. At its core is a simple modification: gravity becomes density-dependent. What's interesting: the theory preserves ΛCDM on cosmological scales while offering a different solution for galaxies. The key prediction is testable through strong lensing in dense regions. I would genuinely value your perspective on whether this approach holds any merit. With respect,Svetlana KryukovaIndependent Researcher
