The work shows that free-streaming dark radiation isocurvature produces a qualitatively different gravitational wave spectrum than cold dark matter isocurvature and derives constraints on isocurvature power spectra around 10^6 Mpc^{-1} from NANOGrav data.

Derives the power spectrum evolution and cross-spectra for arbitrary multi-species wave and particle dark matter, incorporating free-streaming, Jeans scales, and intrinsic fluctuations.
First UVLF-based constraints on model-agnostic isocurvature power spectra for CDM, baryon, neutrino, and dark radiation modes yield consistent 95% credible envelopes over k ~ 0.5-10 Mpc^{-1}.
Derives suppression of adiabatic perturbations and scale-dependent growth of isocurvature power in warm wave dark matter, verifies with Schrödinger-Poisson simulations, and proposes an analytic halo mass function.

Early Growth of Structure in Warm Wave Dark Matter
Derives suppression of adiabatic perturbations and scale-dependent growth of isocurvature power in warm wave dark matter, verifies with Schrödinger-Poisson simulations, and proposes an analytic halo mass function.
