Dark matter may flow like cosmic superfluid, forming vortex lines inside galaxies: Study

SMRTR summary

New research suggests dark matter behaves like a cosmic superfluid, forming stable spinning vortex networks inside galaxies rather than existing as featureless particles. Computer simulations show these quantum whirlpools create smooth, flattened galactic cores that could revolutionize understanding of cosmic architecture and bridge quantum physics with cosmology.
