A modified equation of motion with a fitted constant acceleration is shown to reproduce LSB galaxy rotation curves and predict a dark-matter-like mass profile, while also predicting large solar-system perihelion precessions.

abstract
We explore the possibility that the entire departure of galactic rotational velocities from their luminous Newtonian expectation be cosmological in origin, and show that within the framework of conformal gravity (but not Einstein gravity apparently) every static observer sees the overall Hubble flow as a local universal linear potential which is able to account for available data without any need for dark matter. We find that the Universe is necessarily an open one with 3-space scalar curvature given by $k = -3.5\times 10^{-60}$cm$^{-2}$.

Motion of Particles in Solar and Galactic Systems by Using Neumann Boundary Condition
A modified equation of motion with a fitted constant acceleration is shown to reproduce LSB galaxy rotation curves and predict a dark-matter-like mass profile, while also predicting large solar-system perihelion precessions.
