We consider boson star solutions in a $D$-dimensional, asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime and investigate the influence of the cosmological term on their properties. We find that for $D>4$ the boson star properties are close to those…
We study the time evolution of spherical, excited -- with $n$ radial nodes -- scalar boson stars in General Relativity minimally coupled to a complex massive scalar field with quartic self-interactions. We report that these stars, with up…
Boson stars are self-gravitating solutions made entirely of fundamental massive bosonic fields. Here we investigate mini boson stars in $D$ non-compact spacetime dimensions and we show that they are dynamically unstable for $D>4$.
In previous work, we have found new static, spherically symmetric boson star solutions which generalize the standard boson stars by allowing a particular superposition of scalar fields in which each of the fields is characterized by a fixed…
We study the stability of rotating scalar boson stars, comparing those made from a simple massive complex scalar (referred to as mini boson stars), to those with several different types of nonlinear interactions. To that end, we numerically…
We study the nonlinear radial stability of boson stars with a solitonic potential across the entire parameter space, focusing especially on families of solutions that support ultracompact models on the perturbatively stable branch. Using a…
A code to evolve boson stars in 3D is presented as the starting point for the evolution of scalar field systems with arbitrary symmetries. It was possible to reproduce the known results related to perturbations discovered with 1D numerical…
We present a comparative study of spherically symmetric, localized, particle-like solutions for spin $s=0,1/2$ and $1$ gravitating fields in a $D$-dimensional, asymptotically flat spacetime. These fields are massive, possessing a harmonic…
Scalar, spherically symmetric, radially excited boson stars were previously shown to be stabilized, against spherical dynamics, by sufficiently strong self-interactions. Here, we further test their stability now in a full 3+1D evolution. We…
We review the derivation of the pulsations equations for spherically symmetric boson stars and then make a thorough study of the radial oscillation frequencies for the fundamental and first excited modes. We do this for self-interacting…
Recent fully non-linear simulations of ultracompact spherically symmetric boson stars have presented evidence for their long-term stability. All observed dynamics could be mainly attributed to the fundamental radial mode. In this work, we…
We study rotating boson stars in five spacetime dimensions. The boson fields consist of a complex doublet scalar field. Considering boson stars rotating in two orthogonal planes with both angular momenta of equal magnitude, a special ansatz…
Numerical results from a study of boson stars under nonspherical perturbations using a fully general relativistic 3D code are presented together with the analysis of emitted gravitational radiation. We have constructed a simulation code…
Solutions for rotating boson stars in (2+1) dimensional gravity with a negative cosmological constant are obtained numerically. The mass, particle number, and radius of the (2+1) dimensional rotating boson star are shown. Consequently we…
In this paper, we study rotating boson stars in the large coupling limit as well as in the Newtonian limit. We investigate the equilibrium solutions in four and five dimensions by adopting some analytical approximations. We show that the…
We propose that stable boson stars generically fall within an infinite-parameter family of solutions that oscillate on any number of non-commensurate frequencies. We numerically construct two-frequency solutions and explore their parameter…
We construct supersymmetric Q-balls and boson stars in (d+1) dimensions. These non-topological solitons are solutions of a scalar field model with global U(1) symmetry and a scalar field potential that appears in gauge-mediated…
We make a detailed study of boson star configurations in Jordan--Brans--Dicke theory, studying both equilibrium properties and stability, and considering boson stars existing at different cosmic epochs. We show that boson stars can be…
$\ell$-boson stars are static, spherical, multi-field self-gravitating solitons. They are asymptotically flat, finite energy solutions of Einstein's gravity minimally coupled to an odd number of massive, complex scalar fields. A previous…
We construct and dynamically evolve dipolar, self-interacting scalar boson stars in a model with sextic (+ quartic) self-interactions. The domain of existence of such dipolar $Q$-stars has a similar structure to that of the fundamental…
