More anomalies related to the standard model of galaxy formation

Various anomalies associated with the ΛCDM model assuming that dark matter forms halos and with the general view of galaxy formation have been accumulating rapidly during years. The MOND model assumes no dark mass but modifies Newton's law of gravitation and is inconsistent with the Equivalence Principle. In TGD, the halo is replaced with a cosmic string and the Equivalence Principle and Newtonian gravitation survive. Both MOND and TGD can handle these anomalies because there is no dark mass halo.

In this article, three new anomalies disfavoring ΛCDM but consistent with MOND and TGD are discussed. There are too many thin disk galaxies, dwarf galaxies do not have dark matter halos, and tidal tails associated with star clusters are asymmetric.
