I understand MOND was born out of trying to understand flat rotation curves and I've seen the formulation (and am aware of some of its basic strengths and weaknesses), but it still doesn't answer my questions above about the "external field". For example, doesn't GR and Newtonian gravity account for the "pull from everything"? Does only MOND? Does the math you display describe this external field? | |
