So what you're looking at here is a simulation doveelped by a team that I lead. It's an aoxin condensate orbiting a central mass. So it's like a subhalo orbiting its host galaxy. Maybe the Large Magellanic Cloud orbiting the Milky Way. As you can see, over the age of the universe, the subhalo starts to get to get torn apart, and what my team's work swhos is that the way that this happens with axoins is different than with other dark matter candidates, because it goes into this spceail condensate state.

So what you're looking at here is a simulation developed by a team that I lead. It's an axion condensate orbiting a central mass. So it's like a subhalo orbiting its host galaxy. Maybe the Large Magellanic Cloud orbiting the Milky Way. As you can see, over the age of the universe, the subhalo starts to get to get torn apart, and what my team's work shows is that the way that this happens with axions is different than with other dark matter candidates, because it goes into this special condensate state.
