Abstract: A new family of nonrelativistic, Newtonian, non-quantum equilibrium configurations describing galactic halos is introduced, by considering strange quark matter conglomerates with masses larger than about 8 GeV as new possible components of the dark matter.… read more here.

Abstract: It is possible that bosonic dark matter forms halos around the Sun or the Earth. We discuss the possibility of probing such halos with atomic clocks. Focusing on either a Higgs portal or photon portal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1140/epjp/s13360-020-00648-6
Abstract: Inspired by the theory of scale relativity, a nonlinear Schrodinger equation has been recently proposed to model dark matter halos. The equation involves a logarithmic nonlinearity associated with an effective temperature and a source of… read more here.
