Final fate of compact boson star mergers

Final fate of compact boson star mergers

Boson stars, self-gravitating objects made of a complex scalar field, have been proposed as simple models for very different scenarios, ranging from galaxy dark matter to black hole mimickers. Here we focus on a very compact type of boson stars to study binary mergers by varying different parameters, namely the …
