EYM equations in the presence of q-stars

Abstract

We study Einstein-Yang-Mills equations in the presence of gravitating non-topological soliton field configurations, of q-ball type. We produce numerical solutions, stable with respect to gravitational collapse and to fission into free particles, and we study the effect of the field strength and the eigen-frequency to the soliton parameters. We also investigate the formation of such soliton stars when the spacetime is asymptotically anti de Sitter.
