Title: The Search for Dark Matter, Einstein's Cosmology and MOND
Authors: David B. Cline
Comments: 7 pages; prepared for 2005 Paris/Einstein conference
\\
The discovery of dark matter particles would conclusively reject the MOND
theory. MOND may violate Einstein's Strong Equivalence principle. However, as
we show, there is already evidence that MOND is likely not required. MOND was
invented to explain the rotation velocities of stars far into the galactic
halos. Dark Matter also explains this same effect.
These both use a gravity probe of the I/R^2 law. We show that non gravity
probes determine the same value for the amount of dark matter that does not
involve modifications of gravity. Using Occam's Razor this coincidence is best
explained by the existence of dark matter.

- Light shone upon "dark matter"?
- Ockam's Razor wins again!

- Still dark energy, though.
