Aula Conversi (Dipartimento di Fisica - ED. G.Marconi)

We will explore the possibility that dark matter is composed of sufficiently light particles that it effectively behaves as a collection of waves. We will review the particle physics motivations and the rich wave phenomenology, and discuss the implications for astronomical observations and experimental detection.
