abstract

Large-amplitude isothermal fluctuations in the dark matter energy density, parameterized by $\Phi\equiv\delta\rhodm/\rhodm$, are studied within the framework of a spherical collapse model. For $\Phi \ga 1$, a fluctuation collapses in the radiation-dominated epoch and produces a dense dark-matter object. The final density of the virialized object is found to be $\rho_F \approx 140\, \Phi^3 (\Phi+1) \rhoeq$, where $\rhoeq$ is the matter density at equal matter and radiation energy density. This expression is valid for the entire range of possible values of $\Phi$, both for $\Phi \gg 1$ and $\Phi \ll 1$. Some astrophysical consequences of high-density dark-matter clumps are discussed.

  1. Core-Halo Mass Relation in Cosmological Vector Dark Matter

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Confirmed Proca-star cores in vector dark matter follow M_star ≈ 2.65 M_halo^0.64, with only about 10% of halos hosting a detectable core.

  2. From Rags to Jeans: Axion Miniclusters from Early matter domination

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Temperature-dependent axion mass fluctuations in early matter domination source order-unity axion overdensities by equality, yielding two distinct regions in the nonlinear spectrum and estimated minicluster masses.

  3. Axion Star Bosenova in Axion Miniclusters

    hep-ph 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Axion stars in miniclusters can reach bosenova conditions within the age of the Universe for QCD axions when initial overdensity exceeds roughly 100, once self-interaction effects are included.

  4. Little Red Dots from Small-Scale Primordial Black Hole Clustering

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Densely clustered 30-solar-mass primordial black holes can sequentially merge into ~10^6 solar-mass seeds by redshift 6, possibly explaining JWST little red dots, with high spin from tidal torques and a two-peak gravi...
