A simple model to study boson stars is to consider these stellar objects as quantum systems of $N$ identical self-gravitating particles within a non-relativistic framework. Some results obtained with point-like particles are recalled as…

We study Rotating Boson Star initial data for Numerical Relativity as previously considered by Yoshida and Eriguchi, Lai (arXiv:gr-qc/0410040v2), and Grandclement, Som\'e and Gourgoulhon (arXiv:1405.4837v3). We use a 3 + 1 decomposition as…

We construct and study rotating axion boson stars (RABSs). These are the spinning generalisations of the spherical gravitating solitons recently introduced in arXiv:1909.05515. RABSs are asymptotically flat, stationary, axially symmetric,…

We find that in general relativity slow down of the pulsar rotation due to the magnetodipolar radiation is more faster for the strange star with comparison to that for the neutron star of the same mass. Comparison with astrophysical…
