We simulate the formation and evolution of ultralight bosonic dark matter halos from cosmological initial conditions. Using zoom-in techniques we are able to resolve the detailed interior structure of the halos. We observe the formation of…
Wave Dark Matter (WaveDM) has recently gained attention as a viable candidate to account for the dark matter content of the Universe. In this paper we explore the extent to which dark matter halos in this model, and under what conditions,…
UltraLight Dark Matter (ULDM) is an axion-like dark matter candidate with an extremely small particle mass. ULDM halos consist of a spherically symmetric solitonic core and an NFW-like skirt. We simulate halo creation via soliton mergers…
Dark matter may be composed of light bosons, ${m_b \sim 10^{-22}\, \mathrm{eV}}$, with a de Broglie wavelength $\lambda \sim 1 \,\mathrm{kpc}$ in typical galactic potentials. Such `fuzzy' dark matter (FDM) behaves like cold dark matter…
We explore the impact of a LWDM cosmological scenario on the clustering properties of large-scale structure in the Universe. We do this by extending the halo model. The new development is that we consider two components to the mass density:…
We present an in-depth study of two-component cold dark matter via extensive N-body simulations. We examine various cosmological observables including the temperature evolution, power spectrum, density perturbation, maximum circular…
An ultra-light bosonic particle of mass around $10^{-22}\,\mathrm{eV}/c^2$ is of special interest as a dark matter candidate, as it both has particle physics motivations, and may give rise to notable differences in the structures on highly…
A possible solution to the small scale problems of the cold dark matter (CDM) scenario is that the dark matter consists of two components, a cold and a warm one. We perform a set of high resolution simulations of the Milky Way halo varying…
Ambient dark matter (DM) around binary black holes can imprint characteristic signatures on gravitational waves emitted from their merger. The exact signature depends sensitively on the DM density profile around the black holes. We run very…
The dark energy dominated warm dark matter (WDM) model is a promising alternative cosmological scenario. We explore large-scale structure formation in this paradigm. We do this in two different ways: with the halo model approach and with…
The mass and composition of dark matter (DM) particles and the shape and damping scales of the power spectrum of density perturbations can be estimated from recent observations of the DM dominated relaxed objects -- dwarf galaxies and…
Fuzzy dark matter (FDM) is a dark matter candidate consisting of ultra-light scalar particles with masses around $10^{-22} \mathrm{eV}/c^2$, a regime where cold bosonic matter behaves as a collective wave rather than individual particles.…
Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM) comprised of ultralight ($m \sim 10^{-22}~\rm{eV}$) boson particles has received significant attention as a viable alternative to Cold Dark Matter (CDM), as it approximates CDM on large scales ($\gtrsim 1$ Mpc) while…
We study the formation and evolution of solitons supported by repulsive self-interactions inside extended halos, for scalar-field dark matter scenarios. We focus on the semiclassical regime where the quantum pressure is typically much…
Scalar Field Dark Matter (SFDM), comprised of ultralight ($\gtrsim 10^{-22}$ eV) bosons, is distinguished from massive ($\gtrsim$ GeV), collisionless Cold Dark Matter (CDM) by its novel structure-formation dynamics as Bose-Einstein…
We show that fuzzy dark matter halos exhibit spatial differentiation in the degree of coherence of the field configuration, ranging from completely coherent in the central solitonic core to incoherent outside it, with a crossover region in…
The Ultra-Light Axion (ULA) is a dark matter candidate with mass $\mathcal{O}(10^{-22})$eV and de Broglie wavelength of order kpc. Such an axion, also called the Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM), thermalizes via the gravitational force and forms a…
We analyze the intriguing possibility to explain both dark mass components in a galaxy: the dark matter (DM) halo and the supermassive dark compact object lying at the center, by a unified approach in terms of a quasi-relaxed system of…
Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM), consisting of ultralight bosons ($m_{\rm b} \sim 10^{-22}\ \rm eV$), is an intriguing alternative to Cold Dark Matter. Numerical simulations that solve the Schr\"odinger-Poisson (SP) equation show that FDM halos…
We review the physics and phenomenology of wave dark matter: a bosonic dark matter candidate lighter than about 30 eV. Such particles have a de Broglie wavelength exceeding the average inter-particle separation in a galaxy like the Milky…
