How Cold is Cold Dark Matter? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2014
If cold dark matter consists of particles, these must be non-interacting and non-relativistic by definition. In most cold dark matter models however, dark matter particles inherit a non-vanishing velocity dispersion from interactions in the early ...

Brief History of Ultra-light Scalar Dark Matter Models [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
This is a review on the brief history of the scalar field dark matter model also known as fuzzy dark matter, BEC dark matter, wave dark matter, or ultra-light axion. In this model ultra-light scalar dark matter particles with mass m = O(10-22)eV condense

Cold Dark Matter Models [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1996
Motivated by inflation, the theory of big-bang nucleosynthesis and the quest for a deeper understanding of the fundamental forces and particles, a very successful paradigm for the development of structure in the Universe has evolved.

Hidden Hot Dark Matter as Cold Dark Matter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We show that hidden hot dark matter, hidden-sector dark matter with interactions that decouple when it is relativistic, is a viable dark matter candidate provided it has never been in thermal equilibrium with the particles of the standard model.

Condensation of Galactic Cold Dark Matter

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2016
We consider the steady-state regime describing the density profile of a dark matter halo, if dark matter is treated as a Bose-Einstein condensate. We first solve the fluid equation for "canonical" cold dark matter, obtaining a class of density profiles ...

Scalar dark matter and cold stars [PDF]

open access: greenAstroparticle Physics, 2006
In a medium composed of scalar particles with non-zero mass, the range of Van-der-Waals-type scalar mediated interactions among nucleons becomes infinite when the medium makes a transition to a Bose-Einstein condensed phase. We explore this phenomenon in an astrophysical context.

Cold dark matter resuscitated? [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1995
The Cold Dark Matter (CDM) model has an elegant simplicitly which makes it very predictive, but when its parameters are fixed at their `canonical' values its predictions are in conflict with observational data. There is, however, much leeway in the initial conditions within the CDM framework.

WISPy cold dark matter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2012
Very weakly interacting slim particles (WISPs), such as axion-like particles (ALPs) or hidden photons (HPs), may be non-thermally produced via the misalignment mechanism in the early universe and survive as a cold dark matter population until today.

The Cusp–Core Problem in Gas-Poor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
This review deals with the inconsistency of inner dark matter density profiles in dwarf galaxies, known as the cusp–core problem. In particular, we aim to focus on gas-poor dwarf galaxies.
