Oscillon of Ultra-Light Axion-like Particle

Abstract

Ultra-light axion-like particle (ULAP) is one of attractive candidates for cold dark matter. Because the de Broglie wavelength of ULAP with mass $\sim 10^{-22}\mathrm{eV}$ is $\mathcal{O}(\mathrm{kpc})$, the suppression of the small scale structure by the uncertainty principle can solve the core-cusp problem. Frequently, ULAP is assumed to be uniformly distributed in the present universe. In typical ULAP potentials, however, strong self-resonance at the beginning of oscillation invokes the large fluctuations, which may cause the formation of the dense localized object, oscillon. % Such a dense object lives for a long time, it may affect the cosmological evolution. In this paper, we confirm the oscillon formation in a ULAP potential by numerical simulation and analytically derive its lifetime.
