Axion dark matter, solitons and the cusp–core problem

Self-gravitating bosonic fields can support stable and localized (solitonic) field configurations. Such solitons should be ubiquitous in models of axion dark matter, with their characteristic mass and size depending on some inverse power of the axion mass, m a. Using a scaling symmetry and the uncer...
