Scientific paper

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.
