Abstract
The dark matter is a mysterious kind of matter with no mass, no inertia and none of the other characteristics that we attribute to matter, but for the fact that it exerts a force that prevents the stars of the arms of the spiral galaxies to disperse into space. A force that, to achieve this result, should decrease not with the square of the distance like in Newton’s law, but linearly. This is the identikit of the “transverse mass” that according to Lorentz and Einstein is associated with every mass in motion.

Keywords
dark matter, transverse mass, MOND theory, spiral galaxies, stars' velocity, centrifugal force,
