We develop our novel model of cosmology based on the Bose-Einstein condensation. This model unifies the Dark Energy and the Dark Matter, and predicts multiple collapse of condensation, followed by the final acceleration regime of cosmic…

Though very popular, Bose-Einstein condensate models of dark matter have some difficulties. Here we propose the so-called $\mu$-Bose gas model ($\mu$-BGM) as a model of dark matter, able to treat weak points. Within $\mu$-BGM, the…
