We study the formation and evolution of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) halos. We find analytical, fully cosmological similarity solutions for their dynamics, which take proper account of the collisional interaction of SIDM particles,…
Fuzzy dark matter (FDM) is a proposed modification for the standard cold dark matter (CDM) model motivated by small-scale discrepancies in low-mass galaxies. Composed of ultra-light (mass $\sim 10^{-22}$ eV) axions with kpc-scale de Broglie…
Within the self-gravitating Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) model of dark matter (DM), we argue that the axionlike self-interaction of ultralight bosons ensures the existence of both rarefied and dense phases in the DM halo core of (dwarf)…
