ABSTRACT: The necessary derivation of negative mass in dispersion dynamics suggests cosmic applications. The method analyzes functional relationships between particle angular frequency, wave vector, rest mass and electromagnetic or nuclear potential, f(ω, k, m0, V) = 0. A summary of consequential predictions of the dynamics leads to a calculation of ways in which negative mass might influence such phenomena as the rotational velocities that are observed in spiral galaxies. The velocities are found to be not Newtonian in the simple two body approximations for our solar system; but nearly constant with increasing orbital radii. It has moreover been suggested that the motion is due to halo structures of dark matter or dark energy. However, the motion is simply described by many-body gravitation that is transmitted along elastic spiral arms. In this context, we calculate possible effects of negative mass, but without observational confirmation.
