We demonstrate the existence of gravitational equilibria in this model, described by spherically symmetric nonsingular finite-mass asymptotically-flat solutions. These equilibrium configurations can describe both massive astronomical objects, such as bosonized superfluid stars or cores of neutron stars, and finite-size particles and non-topological solitons, such as Q-balls. We give an estimate for masses and sizes of such objects.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-03-01T07:35:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "superfluid stars", "curved spacetime", "symmetric nonsingular finite-mass asymptotically-flat solutions", "spherically symmetric nonsingular finite-mass asymptotically-flat", "self-interacting complex scalar fields" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "Low Temp.
