Twinkle twinkle dark star: Oscillating profiles from dark matter scalar solitons

Nicolas Aimar, Caio F. B. Macedo, João Luís Rosa +1

Real scalar fields, e.g. the axion, cannot condensate into stationary solitonic configurations to form starlike structures, eventually either dispersing or collapsing. However, by…
