abstract
Cold, ultralight ($\ll$ eV) bosonic dark matter with a misalignment abundance can induce temporal variation in the masses and couplings of Standard Model particles. We find that fast variations in neutrino oscillation parameters can lead to significantly distorted neutrino oscillations (DiNOs) and yield striking signatures at long baseline experiments. We study several representative observables to demonstrate this effect and find that current and future experiments including DUNE and JUNO are sensitive to a wide range of viable scalar parameters over many decades in mass reach.

Mixing of ultralight wave dark matter fields creates a wave-envelope structure with intrinsic slow modulation and frequency sidebands, violating the standard monochromatic assumption.
Mutual information analysis of TNG50 simulations shows gravitational potential and total energy retain merger mass and infall time information longest, while radial velocity loses it within ~5 Gyr, with washout depending on radius, merger age, and mass.
Systematic study of scalar and vector ULDM interactions on long-baseline neutrino oscillations finds order-of-magnitude weaker constraints for m_φ ≲ 10^{-17} eV due to stochastic effects, with combined T2K+NOvA data showing no alleviation of δ_CP discrepancy.
Incorporating timing information from time-dependent new physics signals can improve LHC search sensitivity by up to a factor of two compared to standard time-invariant analyses.
Self-interaction bounds from cosmology constrain ultralight dark matter couplings to neutrinos, electrons, and light quarks via unavoidable quantum loop corrections.
