Yang-Mills stars in Higgsed non-Abelian dark matter

Mudit Jain

Abstract: Bosonic field theories with non-linear interactions alongside gravity, generally admit bound states known as solitons. Depending upon the spin nature of the field, they can even carry macroscopic intrinsic spin polarization. Focusing on the Higgsed SU(2) Yang-Mills theory, we describe polarized solitons in non-Abelian theories with a heavy Higgs, which we refer to as 'Yang-Mills stars'. Owing to both kinds of self-interactions; repulsive ones arising due to the Yang-Mills structure, while attractive ones arisi… Show more

“…In such self-interaction supported solitons, linearly polarized solitons have a lower energy compared to the circularly polarized ones (at fixed particle number). As in the case of scalars (see for example, [47,48]), it will be possible to construct non-relativistic solitons with a combination of self-interactions and gravity [49].…”
