We studied spherically symmetric solutions in scalar-torsion gravity theories in which a scalar field is coupled to torsion with a derivative coupling. We obtained the general field equations from which we extracted a decoupled master…
We construct the most general physically admissible positive-definite inner product on the space of Proca fields. Up to a trivial scaling this defines a five-parameter family of Lorentz invariant inner products that we use to construct a…
We derive, in 2+1 dimensions, classical solutions for metric and motion of two or more spinning particles, in the conformal Coulomb gauge introduced previously. The solutions are exact in the $N$-body static case, and are perturbative in…
We explore static spherically symmetric black hole solutions allowing a bulk U(1) vector field in the khronometric formulation of Horava gravity by way of Einstein-Aether. We examine analytic solutions and study numerical results in the…
We investigate boson star (BS) solutions in the Einstein-Proca theory with the quartic order self-interaction of the vector field $\lambda (A^\mu\bar{A}_\mu)^2/4$ and the mass term $\mu \bar{A}^\mu A_\mu/2$, where $A_\mu$ is the complex…
We explore the possibility that (Bose-Einstein) condensation of scalar fields from string compactifications can lead to long-lived compact objects. Depending on the type of scalar fields we find different realisations of star-like and…
We study static spherically symmetric Kundt solutions to the vacuum field equations of quadratic gravity with a cosmological constant, as well as specific models of six-derivative gravity. In quadratic gravity, we identify all solutions for…
The model of Cremmer-Scherck and Proca are considered in dimensions greater than 3+1. It is obtained that the Proca model correspond to a gauged fixed version of the Cremmer-Scherck one, and we show their canonical equivalence.
We present a new perspective on the nature of quark and gluon condensates in quantum chromodynamics. We suggest that the spatial support of QCD condensates is restricted to the interiors of hadrons, since these condensates arise due to the…
We investigate the viability of a new type of compact star whose main constituent is a Bose-Einstein condensate of charged pions. Several different setups are considered, where a gas of charged leptons and neutrinos is also present. The…
Within the framework of General Relativity a model approach to a description of spherical gravitating static fluid balls with an electric charge is considered. The metric interval is written in Bondi's radiation coordinates. The total…
We study the structure of hybrid stars with the Field Correlator Method, extended to the zero temperature limit, for the quark phase. For the hadronic phase, we use the microscopic Brueckner-Hartree- Fock many-body theory. The comparison…
The static vacuum spherically symmetric solutions of massive gravity theories possess two integration constant: the mass M and a scalar charge S. The presence of this scalar charge reflects the modification of the gravitational interaction…
There are several scales in the QCD as the theory of strong interaction: the vacuum gluonic condensate (as the divergence of the dilatation current), the nucleon mass as the basic mass scale in our universe, which is connected to the string…
The Cosmological Constant Problem is re-examined from an effective field theory perspective. While the connection between gravity and particle physics has not been experimentally probed in the quantum regime, it is severely constrained by…
We investigate non-trivial localized solutions of the condensate in a (2+1)-dimensional D-wave holographic superconductor model in the presence of a background magnetic field. The calculation is done in the context of the (3+1)-dimensional…
The physical modes of a recently proposed D-dimensional "critical gravity", linearized about its anti-de Sitter vacuum, are investigated. All "log mode" solutions, which we categorize as `spin 2' or `Proca', arise as limits of the massive…

The STAR detector will bring unique capabilities to the study of $\vec{p}+\vec{p}$ collisions up to total center of mass energies of 500 GeV at RHIC. The large acceptance of the time projection chamber and the electromagnetic calorimeter…
In this thesis we investigate the Proca field in arbitrary globally hyperbolic curved spacetimes. We rigorously construct solutions to the classical Proca equation, including external sources and without restrictive assumptions on the…
