First constraints on fuzzy dark matter from Lyman-alpha forest data and hydrodynamical simulations

We present constraints on the masses of extremely light bosons dubbed fuzzy dark matter from Lyman- α forest data. Extremely light bosons with a De Broglie wavelength of ~ 1 kpc have been suggested as dark matter candidates that may resolve some of the current small scale problems of the cold dark m...
