We use a new deprojection formula to infer the gravitational potential around isolated galaxies from weak gravitational lensing. The results imply circular velocity curves that remain flat for hundreds of kpc, greatly extending the classic result from 21 cm observations. Indeed, there is no clear hint of a decline out to 1 Mpc, well beyond the expected virial radii of dark matter halos. Binning the data by mass reveals a correlation with the flat circular speed that closely agrees with the Baryonic Tully-Fisher Relation known from kinematic data. These results apply to both early and late type galaxies, indicating a common universal behavior.

  1. Testing CCC+TL Cosmology with Galaxy Rotation Curves

    astro-ph.CO 2025-09 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    A covarying-coupling-constant cosmology with a locally varying parameter X is shown to reproduce the rotation curves of seven SPARC galaxies without dark matter, by fitting a single turn-off density parameter.

  2. Parameter-free prediction of the asymptotic acceleration scale confirmed by weak lensing

    astro-ph.GA 2026-08 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    A predicted formula for the MOND acceleration scale, using the Hubble parameter and deceleration parameter, matches a weak-lensing measurement of the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation.
