Error in bosonic dark matter mass[edit]

The first line in the "Bosonic / field dark matter" section reads: Any dark matter candidate with a mass less than approximately 1 eV and greater than 1 eV is projected to be bosons

m < 1eV and m > 1eV... Gerardhiggins (talk) 08:36, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mass range - 90 orders of magnitude[edit]

The introduction reads: spanning some 90 orders of magnitude from 10−21 eV to about that of a Solar Mass

But 1 solar mass is 2E30 kg = 1E56 eV, and the range from 1E-21 eV to 1E56 eV is 77 orders of magnitude... Gerardhiggins (talk) 08:37, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
