-Boson stars in anti-de Sitter spacetime

Miguel Megevand

In previous work, we introduced the -boson stars, a generalization of standard boson stars, which are parameterized by an angular momentum number , while still preservi…

Noble gravitational atoms: Self-gravitating black hole scalar wigs with angular momentum number

Miguel Alcubierre, Juan Barranco, Argelia Bernal +5

We present new spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein-Klein-Gordon equations in a quasi-stationary approximation that describe self-gravitating scalar field configurations…

Gravitational atoms beyond the test field limit: The case of Sgr A* and ultralight dark matter

Miguel Alcubierre, Juan Barranco, Argelia Bernal +5

We construct gravitational atoms including self-gravity, obtaining solutions of the Einstein-Klein-Gordon equations for a scalar field surrounding a non-rotating black hole in a qu…

Boson stars and their relatives in semiclassical gravity

Miguel Alcubierre, Juan Barranco, Argelia Bernal +5

We construct boson star configurations in quantum field theory using the semiclassical gravity approximation. Restricting our attention to the static case, we show that the semicla…

Head-on collisions of -boson stars

Víctor Jaramillo, Nicolas Sanchis-Gual, Juan Barranco +5

Fully non-linear numerical evolutions of the Einstein-(multi)--Klein-Gordon equations are performed to study head-on collisions of -boson stars. Despite being spherically sym…

Extreme -boson stars

Miguel Alcubierre, Juan Barranco, Argelia Bernal +6

A new class of complex scalar field objects, which generalize the well known boson stars, was recently found as solutions to the Einstein-Klein-Gordon system. The generalization co…
