abstract = {Dark matter (DM) with self-interactions is a promising
solution for the small-scale problems of the standard
cosmological model. Here we perform the first cosmological
simulation of frequent DM self-interactions, corresponding
to small-angle DM scatterings. The focus of our analysis
lies in finding and understanding differences to the
traditionally assumed rare DM (large-angle)
self-scatterings. For this purpose, we compute the
distribution of DM densities, the matter power spectrum, the
two-point correlation function, and the halo and subhalo
mass functions. Furthermore, we investigate the density
profiles of the DM haloes and their shapes. We find that
overall large-angle and small-angle scatterings behave
fairly similarly with a few exceptions. In particular, the
number of satellites is considerably suppressed for frequent
compared to rare self-interactions with the same
cross-section. Overall, we observe that while differences
between the two cases may be difficult to establish using a
single measure, the degeneracy may be broken through a
combination of multiple ones. For instance, the combination
of satellite counts with halo density or shape profiles
could allow discriminating between rare and frequent
self-interactions. As a by-product of our analysis, we
provide – for the first time – upper limits on the
cross-section for frequent self-interactions.},
