Beyond Schrödinger-Poisson: nonrelativistic effective field theory for scalar dark matter

Abstract Massive scalar fields provide excellent dark matter candidates, whose dynamics are often explored analytically and numerically using nonrelativistic Schrödinger-Poisson (SP) equations in a cosmological context. In this paper, starting from the nonlinear...
