The effective mass of dark matter is infinite for isolated systems !
dMOND:
µ -> 0 when r -> infinity
So we get Flat Vcir :), but not stars can escape!

Phantom Dark Matter
Isodensity of phantom dark matter in a MOND MW embedded in an external field of 0.01a0 (panels a and b) and 0.03a0 (panels c and d). The dashed lines are negative isodensities and expected to observe such effects from lensing.

MOND predicts negative phantom dark matter at some regions when there’s EF.

A HVS is escaping from the Galaxy.
Observations of any incoming HyperVelocity Star would rule out CDM models! Perets, Wu et al 2008, arXiv:0809.2087
Prediction for HVS & SDSS Survey
In Newtonian Gravity, there exists instability on some models for galaxies
Can we find stable models for galaxies in MOND?

The first octant is divided into 21 equal mass sectors by 20 shells.The first octant is further divided by planes z = cx/a, y = bx/a and z = cy/b (left panel) into 3 parts. Each part is subdivided by planes ay/bx = 1/5, 2/5, 2/3 and az /cx = 1/5, 2/5, 2/3 into 16 cells (right panel). we sub-divide the cells by the mid-planes of the cells once again.
1. Stationary Orbits:
Stationary orbits are launched from the central points of the outer shell surfaces of the sub-cells.
4 x 16 x (21-2) =192 orbits for each shell
Launch Orbits
2. x-z plane launched orbits:
Give a certain energy Ek = Φ(x, 0, z ) on Kth sector, Curve A is the minimal radius of 1:1 resonant orbits (x:y), and Curve B is the zero velocity surface. We define 10 lines satisfying x = z tan θ, where θ lies within the range 2.25◦ to 87.75◦ . Along the radial direction, we equally divide the radius between two boundaries into 16 parts with 15 points, where those 15 points are the initial positions for the orbits launched from the x − z plane.
There are 150 x − z plane starting orbits for each sector.
