SUMMARY:Small-Scale Structure in Vector Dark Matter - Mustafa Amin\, Rice 
 University

DESCRIPTION:Can we figure out the spin of dark matter from astrophysical o
 bservations? I will talk about new phenomenology of light vector dark matt
 er including (i) a new class of polarized vector solitons (ii) interferenc
 e patterns in density (iii) intrinsic spin. These effects lead to signals 
 in astrophysics and direct detection that can potentially distinguish vect
 or dark matter from their scalar counterpart (via substructure in halos\, 
 gravitational waves and electromagnetic signatures). Time permitting\, I w
 ill discuss preliminary results for different formation mechanisms for vec
 tor dark matter and solitons\, and also generalize to include non-gravitat
 ional interactions.
