Formation of Solitonic Stars Through Gravitational Cooling

Abstract

We studied the formation of compact bosonic objects through a dissipationless cooling mechanism. Implications of the existence of this mechanism are discussed, including the abundance of bosonic stars in the universe, and the possibility of ruling out the axion as a dark matter candidate.
