Title: A Quantum Description of Wave Dark Matter
Speaker: Mr. Dhong Yeon Cheong (Yonsei U.)
Abstract: In this talk, I will outline a fundamentally quantum description of bosonic dark matter. Following a quantum optics-inspired approach, I will show the density matrix of dark matter, which takes a mixed Gaussian form over a coherent state basis. This formalism also allows a precise description of quantities related to dark matter coherence. I will further give a continuous description of dark matter through the wave-particle transition, where the density fluctuation in various scales evolves between the two limits, showing a unique behavior near the boundary of these descriptions.
