Abstract: In modified theories of gravity including a critical acceleration scale, a0, a critical length scale, rM=(GM/a0)1/2, will naturally arise, with the transition from the Newtonian to the dark matter mimicking regime occurring for systems larger than rM. This adds a second critical scale to gravity, in addition to the one introduced by the criterion v<c of the Shwarzschild radius, rS=2GM/c2. The distinct dependencies of the two above length scales give rise to non-trivial phenomenology in the (mass, length) plane for astrophysical structures, which we explore here. Surprisingly, extrapolation to atomic scales suggests gravity should be at the dark matter mimicking regime there.
