Dark matters on the scale of galaxies

I de Martino, SS Chakrabarty, V Cesare, A Gallo… - Universe, 2020 - mdpi.com
The cold dark-matter model successfully explains both the emergence and evolution of
cosmic structures on large scales and, when we include a cosmological constant, the …

Galactic rotation curves versus ultralight dark matter: Implications of the soliton-host halo relation

N Bar, D Blas, K Blum, S Sibiryakov - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
Bosonic ultralight dark matter (ULDM) would form cored density distributions at the center of
galaxies. These cores, seen in numerical simulations, admit analytic description as the …

Fuzzy dark matter and dark matter halo cores

A Burkert - The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
Whereas cold dark matter (CDM) simulations predict central dark matter cusps with densities
that diverge as ρ (r)∼ 1/r, observations often indicate constant-density cores with finite …

Possible wormholes in f(R) gravity sourced by solitonic quantum wave and cold dark matter halos and their repulsive gravity effect

A Errehymy, Y Khedif, O Donmez, M Daoud… - The European Physical …, 2024 - Springer
In this paper, we present new generalized wormhole (WH) solutions within the context of f
(R) gravity. Specifically, we focus on f (R) gravitational theories formulated in the metric …

Absence of a fundamental acceleration scale in galaxies

DC Rodrigues, V Marra, A del Popolo, Z Davari - Nature Astronomy, 2018 - nature.com
Dark matter is currently one of the main mysteries of the Universe. There is much strong
indirect evidence that supports its existence, but there is yet no sign of a direct detection …

Confronting fuzzy dark matter with the rotation curves of nearby dwarf irregular galaxies

Aims. In this paper, we carry out a phenomenological investigation of the viability of fuzzy
dark matter, which is composed of coherent waves of non-interacting ultralight axions with a …

Can light dark matter solve the core-cusp problem?

H Deng, MP Hertzberg, MH Namjoo, A Masoumi - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
Recently, there has been much interest in light dark matter, especially ultralight axions, as
they may provide a solution to the core-cusp problem at the center of galaxies. Since very …

On the effect of angular momentum on the prompt cusp formation via the gravitational collapse

A Del Popolo, S Fakhry - Physics of the Dark Universe, 2023 - Elsevier
In this work, we extend the model proposed by White (2022) concerning the post-collapse
evolution of density peaks while considering the role of angular momentum. On a time scale …

L Street, NY Gnedin, LCR Wijewardhana - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We perform maximum likelihood estimates for single and double flavor ultralight dark matter
(ULDM) models using the Spitzer Photometry and Accurate Rotation Curves database …

Two-scalar Bose-Einstein condensates: from stars to galaxies

HK Guo, K Sinha, C Sun, J Swaim… - Journal of Cosmology …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the properties of Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) systems consisting of two
scalars, focusing on both the case where the BEC is stellar scale as well as the case when it …
