We consider the behavior of the tangential velocity of test particles moving in stable circular orbits in f(R) modified theories of gravity. A large number of observations at the galactic scale have shown that the rotational velocities of massive test particles (hydrogen clouds) tend towards constant values at large distances from the galactic center. We analyze the vacuum gravitational field equations in f(R) models in the constant velocity region, and the general form of the metric tensor is derived in a closed form. The resulting modification of the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian is of the form R^{1+n}, with the parameter n expressed in terms of the tangential velocity. Therefore we find that to explain the motion of test particles around galaxies requires only very mild deviations from classical general relativity, and that modified gravity can explain the galactic dynamics without the need of introducing dark matter.

Probing Dark Matter and Phantom Field Effects on Neutrino Oscillations around Black Holes
For neutrinos deflected by a black hole embedded in phantom-field dark matter, the oscillation phase gains a logarithmic dark matter correction, while radially moving neutrinos see no net gravity effect.

Transit dark energy cosmological models in generalized matter-geometry coupling theory using a non-linear form of $f(R,T,L_{m})$ function
A modified f(R,T,L_m) gravity model, fitted to CC and Pantheon data, yields an accelerating late-time universe with transition redshift near 0.6 and an effective dark energy equation of state within 1e-5 of -1.

Dark Matter and Energy-Momentum Squared Gravity
Energy-momentum squared gravity can reproduce flat galactic rotation curves only because its free parameter s is set from the observed velocities.

Cosmological implications and causality in $f(R, L_{m}, T)$ gravity theory with observational constraints
Four f(R,Lm,T) fluid models are fitted to CC+Pantheon+SH0ES data, but the assumed matter conservation contradicts the theory's field equations.
