Abstract

We study oscillon/I-ball solutions in a real scalar version of the Friedberg-Lee-Sirlin (FLS) model. Using the two-timing analysis, we derive the conditions for oscillon solutions and explore multi-field oscillon configurations. In these configurations, the two fields form co-located oscillons that oscillate with frequencies set by their respective masses. These multi-field oscillons can be viewed as a bound state of two oscillons due to attractive interactions between the fields. We confirm these analytical predictions through numerical lattice calculations. This work extends the standard picture of single-field oscillons and may be relevant for cosmological scenarios involving multiple interacting real scalar fields.
