Summary

Employing the most recent Local Volume Hi Survey (LVHIS) [5] data we are going to derive high-resolution Hi rotation curves for ~28 gas-rich nearby galaxies. Combining these kinematical results with stellar-mass tracing near-IR Hband photometry [5] and accurate TRGB distances [3, 4], we study the dark matter mass profiles of the sample galaxies and test the ability of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) to explain the observed rotation curves and to investigate the Mass Discrepancy-Acceleration Relation.
