Galaxy Phase-Space Density Data Preclude That Bose–Einstein Condensate Be the Total Dark Matter

چکیده

Light scalars (as the axion) with mass m ~ 10^{-22} eV forming a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) exhibit Jeans length in kpc scale and were therefore proposed as dark matter (DM) candidates. Our treatment here is generic, independent of particle physics model applies to all DM BEC, or out equilibrium. Two observed quantities crucially constrain an inescapable way: average density rho_{DM} phase-space Q. The values Q galaxies today both possibility form BEC m. These two constraints robustly exclude axion that decouples just after QCD phase transition. Moreover, value can only be obtained number ultrarelativistic degrees freedom at decoupling trillions which impossible for radiation dominated era. In addition, we find vacuum misalignment scenario axions are produced strongly thermal equilibrium such turns 17 orders magnitude too large reproduce galactic structures. also consider inhomogenous gravitationally bounded BEC's supported by bosonic quantum pressure independently any particular scenario. For typical size R compact object masses M 10^7 Msun they remarkably lead same free-streaming length. However, more than sixty smaller galaxy values. We conclude cannot particle. mili-eV may relevant source energy through zero point cosmological fluctuations.

The Phase-Space Density Profiles of Cold Dark Matter Halos

We examine the coarse-grained phase-space density profiles of a set of recent, highresolution simulations of galaxy-sized Cold Dark Matter (CDM) halos. Over two and a half decades in radius the phase-space density closely follows a power-law, ρ/σ ∝ r−α, with α ≈ 1.875. This behaviour closely matches the self-similar solution obtained by Bertschinger for secondary infall of gas onto a point-mass...

Singlet scalar dark matter in noncommutative space

In this paper, we examine the singlet scalar dark matter annihilation to becoming the Standard Model particles in the non-commutative space. In the recent decades, many candidates of dark matter have been offered,  but our information about  the nature of dark matter is still limited. There are such particle candidates as  scalar matetr, fermion, boson, gauge boson, etc.; however, they have nei...

Determination of the Local Dark Matter Density in our Galaxy

Context. The rotation curve, the total mass and the gravitational potential of the Galaxy are sensitive measurements of the dark matter halo profile. Aims. In this publication cuspy and cored DM halo profiles are analysed with respect to recent astronomical constraints in order to constrain the shape of the Galactic DM halo and the local DM density. Methods. All Galactic density components (lum...
