Scattering, damping, and acoustic oscillations: Simulating the structure of dark matter halos with relativistic force carriers

We demonstrate that self-interacting dark matter models with interactions mediated by light particles can have significant deviations in the matter power spectrum and detailed structure of galactic halos when compared to a standard cold dark matter scenario. While these deviations can take the form...
