Multi-frequency Proca stars are excited equilibrium configurations of a selfgravitating massive vector field that coexist with conventional stationary states in the solution space of the $s=1$ Schr\"odinger-Poisson system. In this paper, we…

We study charged boson stars in scalar-tensor (ST) gravitational theories. We analyse the weak field limit of the solutions and analytically show that there is a maximum charge to mass ratio for the bosons above which the weak field…

We consider a model consists of the Einstein gravity in four-dimensional spacetime, a Proca field and two Dirac fields through minimum coupling. By numerically solving this model, we obtain two types of solutions: synchronized frequency…

Long-range field configurations exist in the Proca theory and their non-equilibrium evolution is of interest in this work. General arguments suggest that a charge can be assigned to them and that its evolution is governed by the law of…

It has recently been revealed that, in curved black-hole spacetimes, non-minimally coupled massive Proca fields may be characterized by the existence of poles in their linearized perturbation equations and may therefore develop…

We investigate dynamical mass generation in pseudo-Proca quantum electrodynamics (PPQED) using Schwinger--Dyson equations in rainbow-quenched and unquenched approximations. The (3+1)D gauge-field mass $m$, fine-structure constant $\alpha$,…

The simplest approach to include a mass into the electromagnetic vector potential is to modify the Einstein-Maxwell action to the Einstein-Proca form. There are currently no exact analytical solutions for this scenario. However, by using…

We study the dynamical stability of Proca-Higgs stars, in spherical symmetry. These are solutions of the Einstein-Proca-Higgs model, which features a Higgs-like field coupled to a Proca field, both of which minimally coupled to the…

We establish that massive complex Abelian vector fields (mass $\mu$) can form gravitating solitons, when minimally coupled to Einstein's gravity. Such Proca stars (PSs) have a stationary, everywhere regular and asymptotically flat geometry.…
