Dark matter from axion strings with adaptive mesh refinement
The question of what axion mass would give rise to the observed dark matter abundance requires proper modelling of non-linear dynamics of the axion field in the early Universe. Here, the authors use adaptive mesh refinement simulations to predict a mass in the range in the range (40,180) microelectr...

Summary: | The question of what axion mass would give rise to the observed dark matter abundance requires proper modelling of non-linear dynamics of the axion field in the early Universe. Here, the authors use adaptive mesh refinement simulations to predict a mass in the range in the range (40,180) microelectronvolts. |
