Q for individual galaxies as a function of max[g_obs] (first row), (second row) and spacing (third row). These 15 galaxies are deep enough in the MOND regime and have sufficiently extended and finely sampled rotation curves (see Sect. 2). The gray line shows the predicted Q from MOND modified gravity, while the gray band shows the ranges of values expected in MOND modified inertia.
