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 …

Many aspects of the large-scale structure of the Universe can be described successfully
using cosmological models in which 27±1% of the critical mass-energy density consists of …

We review the work done so far aimed at modeling in an alternative way the dark matter in
the Universe: the scalar field Bose-Einstein condensate dark matter (SFDM/BEC) model. We …

We examine the nonlinear structure of gravitationally collapsed objects that form in our
simulations of wavelike cold dark matter, described by the Schrödinger-Poisson (SP) …

The last decade has seen unprecedented effort in dark matter model building at all mass
scales coupled with the design of numerous new detection strategies. Transformative …

We present a theoretical analysis of some unexplored aspects of relaxed Bose–Einstein
condensate dark matter (BECDM) haloes. This type of ultralight bosonic scalar field dark …

Using three-dimensional simulations, we study the dynamics and final structure of merging
solitonic cores predicted to form in ultralight axion dark matter halos. The classical …

The newly established luminosity functions (LFs) of high-z galaxies at 4≲ z≲ 10 can provide
a stringent check on dark matter models that aim to explain the core properties of dwarf …

A bstract We study the possibility that self-interacting bosonic dark matter forms star-like
objects. We study both the case of attractive and repulsive self-interactions, and we focus …

We present a wave generalization of the classic Schwarzschild method for constructing self-
consistent halos—such a halo consists of a suitable superposition of waves instead of …
