dark matter could be clumping into cold droplets called 'Bose stars'.

"After a very long period, 100,000 times longer than the time needed for a particle to cross the simulation volume, the particles spontaneously formed a condensate, which immediately shaped itself into a spherical droplet, a Bose star, under the effect of gravity."

Interesting read. Thoughts and comments?

These things always tend to violate constraints from microlensing if they are supposed to play a strong role.
