Q-stars in extra dimensions

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-10 v1

Abstract

We study q-stars with global and local U(1) symmetry in extra dimensions in asymptotically anti de Sitter or flat spacetime. The behavior of the mass, radius and particle number of the star is quite different in 3 dimensions, but in 5, 6, 8 and 11 dimensions is similar to the behavior in 4.
