Session B14 - Galaxies, Supernovae, and Cosmology.
ORAL session, Saturday morning, April 28
Room 14, Renaissance Hotel$
A model of galactic structure is formulated in which the visible regions of a galaxy are embedded in a larger region of charged matter. The dark matter problem is addressed in this context. Galactic structure is shown to be stable only for a extremely large universe and a nearly constant charge to density ratio.
