Spontaneous scalarization

DD Doneva, FM Ramazanoğlu, HO Silva… - Reviews of Modern …, 2024 - APS
Scalarization is a mechanism that endows strongly self-gravitating bodies, such as neutron
stars and black holes, with a scalar-field configuration. It resembles a phase transition in that …

Modified gravity and cosmology

EN Saridakis, R Lazkoz, V Salzano, PV Moniz… - 2021 - Springer
The dawn of the twenty-first century came with very positive prospects for gravity, cosmology,
and astrophysics. Technological progress made it possible for cosmology to enter to its …

Spontaneously scalarized Kerr black holes in extended scalar-tensor–Gauss-Bonnet gravity

PVP Cunha, CAR Herdeiro, E Radu - Physical Review Letters, 2019 - APS
We construct asymptotically flat, spinning, regular on and outside an event horizon,
scalarized black holes (SBHs) in extended scalar-tensor–Gauss-Bonnet models. They …

DD Doneva, FM Ramazanoğlu, HO Silva… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - pure.mpg.de
Exploring the nature of gravity in the strong curvature regime is seeing a surge of interest
lately. This is expected to intensify, as it is driven by current and future observations of …

Black hole scalarization induced by the spin: time evolution

DD Doneva, LG Collodel, CJ Krüger, SS Yazadjiev - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
Scalarization is a very interesting phenomenon allowing a compact object to be endowed
with scalar hair while leaving all the predictions in the weak field limit unaltered. In Gauss …

Scalarized black holes in the presence of the coupling to Gauss-Bonnet gravity

M Minamitsuji, T Ikeda - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
In this paper, we study static and spherically symmetric black hole (BH) solutions in the
scalar-tensor theories with the coupling of the scalar field to the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) term, ξ …

Spinning and excited black holes in Einstein-scalar-Gauss–Bonnet theory

LG Collodel, B Kleihaus, J Kunz… - Classical and Quantum …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We construct rotating black holes in Einstein-scalar-Gauss–Bonnet theory with a quadratic
coupling function. We map the domain of existence of the rotating fundamental solutions, we …

Dynamical descalarization with a jump during a black hole merger

DD Doneva, A Vañó-Viñuales, SS Yazadjiev - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
Black holes in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity are prone to scalarization, that is a spontaneous
development of scalar hair for strong enough spacetime curvature. Since large spacetime …
