The axions produced during the QCD phase transition by vacuum realignment, string decay and domain wall decay thermalize as a result of their gravitational self-interactions when the photon temperature is approximately 500 eV. They then…
If dark matter in the galactic halo is composed of bosons that form a Bose-Einstein condensate then it is likely that the rotation of the halo will lead to the nucleation of vortices. After a review of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, the…
We consider the condensate of $q$-deformed bosons as a model of dark matter. Our observations demonstrate that for all $q$ values, the system condenses below a $q$-dependent critical temperature $T^{q}_c$. The critical temperature…
Bose-Einstein-condensed dark matter, also called scalar-field dark matter (SFDM), has become a popular alternative to cold dark matter (CDM), because it predicts galactic cores, in contrast to the cusps of CDM halos ("cusp-core problem").…

Bose--Einstein Condensates have been recently proposed as dark matter candidates. In order to characterise the phenomenology associated to such models, we extend previous investigations by studying the most general case of a relativistic…
Cold and hot dark matter (CDM, HDM) imprint distinctive effects on the cosmological observables, naturally, they are often thought to be made of different kinds of particles. However, we point out that CDM and HDM could share a common…
Bose-Einstein Condensate Dark Matter (BECDM; also known as Fuzzy Dark Matter) is motivated by fundamental physics and has recently received significant attention as a serious alternative to the established Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model. We…
Our goal is to understand the phenomena arising in optical lattice fermions at low temperature in an external magnetic field. Varying the field, the attraction between any two fermions can be made arbitrarily strong, where composite bosons…
Cold dark matter (CDM) models predict small-scale structure in excess of observations of the cores and abundance of dwarf galaxies. These problems might be solved, and the virtues of CDM models retained, even without postulating {\it ad…

According to the current concordance cosmological model, the dark matter (DM) particles are collision-less and produce self-gravitating structures with a central cusp which, generally, is not observed. The observed density tends to a…
The main aim of this study is to reveal curved space and particle physics effects on the formation of Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) scalar fields in cosmology and around a black hole. Cosmological scalar fields for dark energy and dark…

Axions differ from ordinary cold dark matter, such as WIMPs or sterile neutrinos, because they form a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). As a result, axions accreting onto a galactic halo fall in with net overall rotation. In contrast,…
While ultra-light bosonic dark matter (ULDM) in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) state could naturally account for the central core in some galaxies and resolve the core-cusp problem, the dark matter density distribution in the outer…
We explore the consequences of including the repulsive three-particle interaction in the model of Bose-Einstein condensate dark matter model or fuzzy dark matter. Such a model based on properly modified Gross-Pitaevskii equation is intended…
