| Abstract: |
If cold dark matter elementary particles form a Bose-Einstein
condensate, their superfluidity may distinguish them from other
forms of cold dark matter, including creation of quantum vortices.
We demonstrate here that such vortices are favoured in
strongly-coupled condensates, while this is not the case for axions,
which are generally presumed to form a Bose-Einstein condensate but
are effectively non-interacting.
