Excluding fuzzy dark matter with sizes and stellar kinematics of ultrafaint dwarf galaxies

N Dalal, A Kravtsov - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We use observations of ultrafaint dwarf (UFD) galaxies to constrain the particle mass of
ultralight dark matter. Potential fluctuations created by wave interference in virialized “fuzzy” …

Galactic rotation curves versus ultralight dark matter: A systematic comparison with SPARC data

N Bar, K Blum, C Sun - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We look for and place observational constraints on the imprint of ultralight dark matter
(ULDM) soliton cores in rotation-dominated galaxies. Extending previous analyses, we find …
