Popis: Logarithmic superfluid theory of physical vacuum suggests that gravity has a multiple-scale structure; where one can recognize sub-Newtonian, Newtonian, logarithmic, linear and quadratic (de Sitter) terms in the induced spacetime metric and effective potential. To test the theory's predictions on a galactic scale, we apply best-fitting procedures to the rotation curve data obtained from fifteen galaxies by the HI Nearby Galaxy Survey; assuming their stellar disk's parameters to be fixed to the mean values measured using photometric methods. Although the fitting results seem to be sensitive to a stellar disk model chosen, they correspond closely with observational data, even for those galaxies which rotation velocity profiles do not have flat regions.
