Dark matter self-interactions and small scale structure
We review theories of dark matter (DM) beyond the collisionless paradigm, known as self-
interacting dark matter (SIDM), and their observable implications for astrophysical structure …

Self-interacting dark matter can explain diverse galactic rotation curves
A Kamada, M Kaplinghat, AB Pace, HB Yu - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
The rotation curves of spiral galaxies exhibit a diversity that has been difficult to understand
in the cold dark matter (CDM) paradigm. We show that the self-interacting dark matter …
