Abstract

This paper aims to put constraints on the parameters of the Scalar Field Dark Matter (SFDM) model, when dark matter is described by a free real scalar field filling the whole universe, plus a cosmological constant term. By using a compilation of 51 $H (z)$ $H (z)$ data and 1048 Supernovae data from Panteon, a mass range for the scalar field was obtained, $7.8 \times 1 0^{- 35} \leq m \leq 1 0^{- 17}$ $7.8 \times 1 0^{- 35} \leq m \leq 1 0^{- 17}$ eV, in good agreement with light mass axion particles. Also, we have obtained $H_{0} = 69 . 5_{- 2.1}^{+ 2.0} {km s}^{- 1} {Mpc}^{- 1}$ $H_{0} = 69 . 5_{- 2.1}^{+ 2.0} {km s}^{- 1} {Mpc}^{- 1}$ , and the present dark matter density parameter $Ω_{ϕ} = 0.23 0_{- 0.031}^{+ 0.033}$ $Ω_{ϕ} = 0.23 0_{- 0.031}^{+ 0.033}$ at $2 σ$ $2 σ$ confidence level. These results are in good agreement to standard model of cosmology, showing that SFDM model is viable in describing the dark matter content of the universe.
