Scientific paper

The contribution of all nondark matter to gravitational acceleration 300-500 kpc off the galactic plane is shown to be increased by more than 20 percent when actual observations of the gas distribution are included in the calculations. The requirements for a dark-matter component are thus reduced by about 40 percent with no change in the estimated midplane density of the observed matter. The present theory involved a reduction of the Oort limit itself by about 20 percent.
