We consider charged boson stars and study their effect on the structure of the vacuum. For very compact particle like ``stars", with constituent mass $m_{*}$ close to the Planck mass $m_{Pl}$, i.e. $m_{*}^{2} = {\cal O} (\alpha…
In this paper we study gravitationally bound compact objects sourced by a string theory inspired Born-Infeld scalar field. Unlike many of their canonical scalar field counterparts, these ``boson stars'' do not have to extend out to infinity…
Different types of gravitating compact objects occuring in d=5 space-time are considered: boson stars, hairy black holes and perfect fluid solutions. All these solutions of the Einstein equations coupled to matter have well established…
We construct boson stars in (4+1)-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We study the properties of the solutions in dependence on the coupling constants and investigate these in detail. While the "thick wall" limit is independent of the value…
Bosonic stars represent a hypothetical exotic type of compact stellar objects that could be observed from the gravitational signal of coalescing binaries in current and future gravitational wave detectors. There are two main families of…
Given a bulk scalar field with sufficient self-interactions in a higher dimensional spacetime, it is shown that the continuous symmetries in four dimensions, induced by the topological structure of the compact manifold, naturally lead to…
We prove the existence of a countable family of globally regular solutions of spherically symmetric Einstein-Klein-Gordon equations. These solutions, known as mini-boson stars, were discovered numerically many years ago.
We present a study of black hole threshold phenomena for a self-gravitating, massive complex scalar field in spherical symmetry. We construct Type I critical solutions dynamically by tuning a one-parameter family of initial data composed of…
We showed that compact bosonic objects can be formed through a process we called gravitational cooling. A central issue in the subject of boson star is whether a classical field configuration, {\it e.g.,} one described by the Klein-Gordon…
In this article, we investigate the stationary, soliton-like solutions in the model of the Einstein gravity coupled to a free and complex scalar field, and extend chains of mini-boson stars to the rotating case. These solutions manifest as…
In this paper, we re-investigate the stationary, soliton-like solutions in the model of the Einstein gravity coupled to a free and complex scalar field, which have been known as mini-boson stars. With numerical method, we find that in…
Boson stars represent a hypothetical exotic type of compact stellar object that may be observed from the gravitational signal of coalescing binaries in current and future GW detectors. In this work we show that the moment of inertia $I$,…
Compact objects, like neutron stars and white dwarfs, may accrete dark matter, and then be sensitive probes of its presence. These compact stars with a dark matter component can be modeled by a perfect fluid minimally coupled to a complex…
We study charged and rotating boson stars in 5-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell(-Chern-Simons) theory assuming the two angular momenta associated to the two orthogonal planes of rotation to be equal. Next to the angular momenta, the boson stars…
The boson star filled with two interacting scalar fields is investigated. The scalar fields can be considered as a gauge condensate formed by SU(3) gauge field quantized in a non-perturbative manner. The corresponding solution is regular…
We examined the Einstein-Klein-Gordon system coupled to a nonlinear electrodynamics framework that asymptotically supports a Hayward spacetime. We explored the solution space of a static spherically symmetric, complex scalar field minimally…
We study, for the first time, the evolution of a scalar cloud bound to an evaporating black hole. Our simulations of the associated Schr\"odinger-Poisson system for non-relativistic and spherically symmetric clouds reveal that a scalar…
A realistic equation of state (EOS) leads to realistic strange stars (ReSS) which are compact in the mass radius plot, close to the Schwarzchild limiting line (Dey et al 1998). Many of the observed stars fit in with this kind of…
We make an analysis of Q-balls and boson stars using catastrophe theory, as an extension of the previous work on Q-balls in flat spacetime. We adopt the potential $V_3(\phi)={m^2\over2}\phi^2-\mu\phi^3+\lambda\phi^4$ for Q-balls and that…
Boson stars have attracted much attention in recent decades as simple, self-consistent models of compact objects and also as self-gravitating structures formed in some dark-matter scenarios. Direct detection of these hypothetical objects…
