Description
In this talk, I will review models in which dark matter is described by an ultralight vector field. I will present the cosmological perturbations, and compare the predictions with those of the ultralight scalar field scenario. In particular, I will discuss the possibility of distinguishing the spin of dark matter using data from the matter power spectrum. Finally, I will present constraints on the dark matter energy density derived from the study of binary inspirals in a vector dark matter environment.
