Cosmology

dark matter of extremely light bosons whose kiloparsec-scale de Broglie wavelength suppresses small-scale structure and forms solitonic cores.

In cosmology, fuzzy dark matter refers to dark matter of extremely light bosons whose kiloparsec-scale de Broglie wavelength suppresses small-scale structure and forms solitonic cores. This meaning comes from Hu (2000) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
