Halo properties obtained from the posteriors of the FDM fits to the rotation curves of the LTs galaxies for a fixed axion mass ma = 1.9 × 10−23 eV. Gray-colored points are galaxies for which both median and maximum posterior values of rt are within the observed range, while gold-colored are soliton-dominated by virtue of not satisfying that condition. Uncertainties in the data points describe the credible intervals at 68% (solid) and 95% (dashed) CL. Uncertainties in the theoretical bands refer to the 1 and 2σ scatter in the predictions. Top-left: Mc − Mh relation compared to the region allowed by Eq. (15) and the prediction in Eq. (14) from Schive et al. (2014b; dotted line). Top-right: c − Mh relation compared to Eq. (16) and to the prediction in CDM, Eq. (17) from Dutton & Macciò (2014) with σ = 0.16 dex (gray dashed line). Bottom-left: Stellar-to-halo mass relation from abundance matching compared to the FDM prediction using Eq. (18), and the CDM predictions from Behroozi et al. (2019; dashed gray line) and Brook et al. (2014; dot-dashed line) with a reference σ = 0.30 dex scatter in both cases. Bottom-right: Expected number of halos with Mh ≲ 1011 M in a Local Group volume of radius 1.8 Mpc predicted in FDM as a function of ma, using Eq. (18) and calibrated with the CDM prediction of the HMF from Brook et al. (2014). This is compared to the HMF from Schive et al. (2016; dashed line). For the CDM prediction, we take 109Mh ≲ 1011 M. The dot-dashed line and gray bands represent the mean and the 68% and 95% CL regions for the axion mass in Eq. (23).
