Lachlan Lancaster, Cara Giovanetti, Philip Mocz, Yonatan Kahn, Mariangela Lisanti, David N. Spergel

摘要:

我们提出了一个深入的探索宇宙中的动力学摩擦的现象,其中的暗物质是完全由所谓的模糊暗物质(FDM),超轻玻色子的质量$m\sim\mathcal{O}(10^{-22})\,$ eV。我们回顾了经典的处理动态摩擦提出的分析结果的情况下,FDM的点质量,扩展的质量分布,有限的速度色散和FDM背景。然后,我们将这些结果与一系列完全非线性模拟进行测试,从而使我们能够评估分析结果的适用性。我们将这些结果应用于各种感兴趣的天体物理问题,包括银河系暗物质背景中的坠落卫星,并确定\emph{(1)} ~对于FDM质量$m\gtrsim 10^{-21}\, {\rm eV}\, c^{-2}$,天炉座矮球状星团的计时问题不再解决,\emph{(2)} ~对于总质量为$M$、相对速度为$v_{\rm rel}$的卫星来说,有限差分法对动力摩擦过程的影响,需要详细地说明$\left(M/10^9~M_{\odot}\right) \left(m/10^{-22}~{\rm eV}\right)\left(100~{\rm km}~{\rm s}^{-1}/v_{\rm rel}\right) \sim 1$的数值模拟,由于瞬态波结构的时间依赖性,这些参数超出了任何当前开发的分析理论的有效适用范围。

英文摘要:

We present an in-depth exploration of the phenomenon of dynamical friction in a universe where the dark matter is composed entirely of so-called Fuzzy Dark Matter (FDM), ultralight bosons of mass $m\sim\mathcal{O}(10^{-22})\,$eV. We review the classical treatment of dynamical friction before presenting analytic results in the case of FDM for point masses, extended mass distributions, and FDM backgrounds with finite velocity dispersion. We then test these results against a large suite of fully non-linear simulations that allow us to assess the regime of applicability of the analytic results. We apply these results to a variety of astrophysical problems of interest, including infalling satellites in a galactic dark matter background, and determine that \emph{(1)}~for FDM masses $m\gtrsim 10^{-21}\, {\rm eV}\, c^{-2}$, the timing problem of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal's globular clusters is no longer solved and \emph{(2)}~the effects of FDM on the process of dynamical friction for satellites of total mass $M$ and relative velocity $v_{\rm rel}$ should require detailed numerical simulations for $\left(M/10^9~M_{\odot}\right) \left(m/10^{-22}~{\rm eV}\right)\left(100~{\rm km}~{\rm s}^{-1}/v_{\rm rel}\right) \sim 1$, parameters which would lie outside the validated range of applicability of any currently developed analytic theory, due to transient wave structures in the time-dependent regime.
