Nonlinear axion dynamics and the formation of cosmological pseudosolitons

Open access
Kolb, Edward W., Tkachev, Igor I.·1994·Physical Review D

Abstract

The (3+1)-dimensional evolution of an inhomogeneous axion field configuration around the QCD epoch is studied numerically, including important nonlinear effects due to the attractive self-interaction. It is found that axion perturbations on scales corresponding to causally disconnected regions at $T\ensuremath{\sim}1$ GeV can lead to very dense pseudosoliton configurations we call axitons. These configurations evolve to axion miniclusters with a present density ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{a}\ensuremath{\gtrsim}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}8}$ g ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\ensuremath{-}3}$. This is high enough for the collisional $2a\ensuremath{\rightarrow}2a$ process to lead to Bose-Einstein relaxation in the gravitationally bound clumps of axions, forming Bose stars.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
