Would dark matter (as a BEC) be captured by Black Holes, Neutron Stars, etc?

Yo!
Here's your answer!
If the wavelength of the particles is very large, there is a low probability that a particle will be found to be located near a small object (the NS or BH). But (1) the immense gravitational field of the NS/BH should blueshift the wavelength of some particles to essentially bring those particles out of a BEC state, (2) if a very large number of particles are spread out over a large region, I would expect some particles would inevitably find themselves near enough the object to be captured, such that the capture rate should more or less average out and be similar to the capture rate of particle dark matter.
Hope that this helps you!

Yes dark matter as BEC can be captured because black hole has the capacity to attract even the most smallest particle and NEC is even much bigger than that of light particles . So it can attract them
