My first scientific paper, together with @raghuastro and @garreltm! :D We've derived new 21-cm constraints on fuzzy dark matter (FDM), an alternative to cold dark matter (CDM) that has gotten much attention as of late. (1/n)
(2/n) FDM suppresses structure formation on small scales, and the smallest structures form early in the Universe. Because of this, studying Cosmic Dawn offers us not just a glimpse of the first stars and galaxies, but also a glimpse of the nature of dark matter!
