Perturbing Gravitational Atoms: Negative Love, Resonant Tides and Shifted Resonances
Mateja Bošković, Nikola Savić
The superradiant instability of rotating black holes can generate a significant overdensity of bosonic matter around them, together forming a gravitational atom. This mechanism all…
Trails of clouds in binary black holes
Mateja Bošković, Rafael A. Porto, Matthias Koschnitzke
Superradiant instabilities of rotating black holes can give rise to long-lived bosonic clouds, offering natural laboratories to probe ultralight particles across a wide range of pa…
Signatures of ultralight bosons in the orbital eccentricity of binary black holes
Mateja Bošković, Matthias Koschnitzke, Rafael A. Porto
We show that the existence of clouds of ultralight particles surrounding black holes during their cosmological history as members of a binary system can leave a measurable imprint…
Two-body problem in theories with kinetic screening
Mateja Bošković, Enrico Barausse
New light scalar degrees of freedom may alleviate the dark matter and dark energy problems, but if coupled to matter, they generally mediate a fifth force. In order for this fifth…
Gravitational waves and kicks from the merger of unequal mass, highly compact boson stars
Miguel Bezares, Mateja Bošković, Steven Liebling +3
Boson stars have attracted much attention in recent decades as simple, self-consistent models of compact objects and also as self-gravitating structures formed in some dark-matter…
Soliton boson stars, Q-balls and the causal Buchdahl bound
Mateja Bošković, Enrico Barausse
Self-gravitating non-topological solitons whose potential admits multiple vacua are promising candidates for exotic compact objects. Such objects can arise in several extensions of…
Parametric-resonance based phenomenology of gravitating axion configurations
Mateja Bošković
One of the most compelling candidates for Dark Matter (DM) are light pseudo-scalar particles (axions), motivated by the strong CP problem and axiverse scenario in string theory. De…
Axionic instabilities and new black hole solutions
Mateja Boskovic, Richard Brito, Vitor Cardoso +2
The coupling between scalar and vector fields has a long and interesting history. Axions are one key possibility to solve the strong CP problem and axion-like particles could be on…
Black holes, gravitational waves and fundamental physics: a roadmap
Leor Barack, Vitor Cardoso, Samaya Nissanke +203
The grand challenges of contemporary fundamental physics---dark matter, dark energy, vacuum energy, inflation and early universe cosmology, singularities and the hierarchy problem-…
