Wave dark matter (ψDM), characterized by a single parameter, the dark matter particle mass mψ, predicts a central soliton core in every galaxy arising from quantum pressure against gravity. Here we apply Jeans analysis assuming a soliton core profile to the kinematic data of eight classical dSphs so as to constrain mψ, and obtain mψ = 1.18+0.28-0.24 × 10−22 and 1.79+0.35−0.33 × 10−22 eV(2σ) using the two different observational data sets of Walker et al. We show that the estimate of mψ is sensitive to the dSph kinematic data sets and is robust to various models of stellar density profile. We also consider multiple stellar subpopulations in dSphs and find consistent results. This mass rangeof mψ is in good agreement with other independent estimates, such as the high-redshift luminosity functions, the reionization history and the Thomson optical depth to the cosmic microwave background. © 2017 The Authors Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society |
