Q-stars in anti de Sitter spacetime (Q702890): Difference between revisions

The author investigates the formation of q-stars with one and two scalar fields, q-stars with non-abelian symmetry and scalar-fermion q-stars. He solves numerically the coupled Einstein-Lagrange equations. The main result from the numerical analysis is that the field at the origin increases rapidly from the increase, in absolute values, of the cosmological constant. The mass, radius and particle number, firstly increase and after a certain value of the cosmological constant decrease. The results are compared with the behaviour of boson (not soliton) stars in the negative curvature spacetime. In the case of charged q-stars, there are stable stars for small values of the field strength \(e\). The soliton parameters take larger values in the presence of electric charge due to the electrostatic repulsion between the different parts of the star. This repulsion has the effect to decrease the \(| \phi(0)| \) value and to force the field concentrate near the surface. For larger value of \(e\), the decay into free particles is inevitable.
