On galactic halos: Bosons and fermions

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

Two self-gravitating collisionless quantum gases in their ground state, one formed by bosons and the other by fermions, are analysed and compared in order to explain the flatness of the rotation curves in galaxies. A realistic visible matter distribution has been taken into account in the calculations.
