Fred Cooperstock and Steven Tieu of Northeastern University and the University of Victoria respectively have a paper on arXiv which apparently shows that using general relativity with corrections for non-linear effects and other such things I do not understand results in a VERY good fit for the explanation of why galaxies rotate the way they do and thus removes any need for non-baryonic "dark matter" haloes around the galaxy! If it is a valid result and is verified it will be a really major discovery. Even CERN is now carrying a blurb about the paper.
