Abstract

Abstract
  In order to solve the problem of flattening of the rotation curve V(r ), this research has proposed a "Spiral Gravity Model (SGM)" that focuses on the geometric shape of the Milky Way Galaxy and has verified its effectiveness.

  By using the SGM, this paper solves the problems of increasing variation and characteristic velocity fluctuations seen in the observational data so far, while at the same time elucidate the actual state of the movement inside the spiral arms. Data analysis showed that problems such as variation arise from differences in centripetal force, which are the cause of significant differences, and that by distinguishing between these, it is possible to reduce measurement errors to a few percent of statistical accuracy. In relation to this, I propose a "Velocity Fluctuation Model (VFM)" that deals with local gravity, and for the first time provide theoretical support for the generation mechanism. In principle, this VFM is the same as the SGM, and a new centripetal force (gravity) is generated by the curved structure of the spiral arms (distortion of internal gravity) without an increase in mass. This is a discovery that would be completely unimaginable based on Kepler's law, and I believe that it once again shows a new generation principle for gravity. By applying this VFM to the solar system of the Milky Way, a theoretical basis was provided for proper motion treated with three-dimensional velocity parameters (U0, V0, W0 ). The results clarified the true nature of proper motion in the V(r ) characteristic, and predicted the existence of a new form of motion ( multiple helical structures) inside the spiral arms. With the improvement of measurement accuracy, future verification is highly anticipated.

  From the above, by adding the local model VFM to the basic model SGM, many important findings and predictions have been obtained. I believe that by utilizing these models as analytical tools in the future, the cosmology of spiral galaxies will be significantly reconsidered and our understanding will advance dramatically.
