Stueckelberg Bosons as an Ultralight Dark Matter Candidate

Abstract: In this letter, we propose a new model of fuzzy dark matter based on Stueckelberg theory. Dark matter is treated as a Bose-Einstein condensate of Stueckelberg particles and the resulting cosmological effects are analyzed. Fits are understood for the density and halo sizes of such particles and comparison with existing models is made. Certain attractive properties of the model are demonstrated and lines for future work are laid out.
