On the Orbital Velocity of Isolated Galaxy Pairs: II Accurate MOND
  Predictions
  Examining a catalogue of isolated galaxy pairs, a preferred orbital
intervelocity of ~150 km/s was recently reported. This discovery is difficult
to reconcile with the expectations from Newtonian numerical simulations of
cosmological structure formations. In a previous paper we have shown that a
preferred intervelocity for galaxy pairs is expected in Modified Newtonian
Dynamics (MOND). Here a detailed analysis of the MOND predictions is presented,
showing that a remarkable agreement with the observations can be achieved for a
mass to light ratio M/L~1 in solar units. This agrees with the expectations for
a typical stellar population, without requiring non-baryonic dark matter for
these systems.
