Caustic fringes for wave dark matter
Andrew Eberhardt, Lam Hui
Wave dark matter is composed of particles sufficiently light that their de Broglie wavelength exceeds the average inter-particle separation. A typical wave dark matter halo exhibit…

Heating and scattering of stellar distributions by ultralight dark matter
Andrew Eberhardt, Mateja Gosenca, Lam Hui
Due to wave interference, an ultralight light dark matter halo has stochastic, granular substructures which can scatter stars, leading to the heating of stellar distributions. Stud…
