We conduct studies on Levin's taxonomy of periodic orbits for neutral test particles around a Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m naked singularity. It was known that naked singularities could harbor two distinct regions of time-like bound orbits and…

We study the geodesic motion of test particles in the space-time of non-compact boson stars. These objects are made of a self-interacting scalar field and -- depending on the scalar field's mass -- can be as dense as neutron stars or even…
