Galaxies with Fuzzy Dark Matter

Abstract

This is a brief review on some properties of galaxies in the fuzzy dark matter model, where dark matter is an ultra-light scalar particle with mass m = O(10-22)eV. From quantum pressure, dark matter has a halo length scale which can solve the small scale issues of the cold dark matter model, such as the core-cusp problem, and explain many other observed mysteries of galaxies.
