Spontaneous scalarization with massive fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We study the effect of a mass term in the spontaneous scalarization of neutron stars, for a wide range of scalar field parameters and neutron star equations of state.

Spontaneous scalarization of a conducting sphere in Maxwell-scalar models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We study the spontaneous scalarization of a standard conducting charged sphere embedded in Maxwell-scalar models in flat spacetime, wherein the scalar field ϕ is nonminimally coupled to the Maxwell electrodynamics.

Multiscalar Gauss-Bonnet gravity: Scalarized black holes beyond spontaneous scalarization [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2022
Recently, a new nonlinear mechanism for black hole scalarization, different from the standard spontaneous scalarization, was demonstrated to exist for scalar Gauss-Bonnet theories in which no tachyonic instabilities can occur.

SCALAR KINKS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics B, 1994
We determine the excitations and S matrix of an integrable isotropic antiferromagnetic quantum spin chain of alternating spin 1/2 and spin 1. There are two types of gapless one-particle excitations: the usual spin 1/2 (“spinor”) kink, and a new spin 0 (“scalar”) kink.

MIXING OF SCALAR GLUEBALL AND SCALAR QUARKONIA [PDF]

open access: yesHigh Energy Physics, 2007
The isosinglet scalar mesons $f_0(1710)$, $f_0(1500)$, $f_0(1370)$ and their mixing are studied. Two recent lattice results are employed as the starting point; one is the approximate SU(3) symmetry in the scalar sector above 1 GeV for the connected insertion part without $q\bar q$ annihilation, and the other is the scalar glueball mass at 1710 MeV in ...

Scalarization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Random lsc (lower semicontinuous) functions can be indentified with a vector-valued random variable by means of an appropriate scalarization. It is shown that stationarity, ergodicity and independence properties are preserved by this scalarization.

Spontaneous Scalarization of Black Holes and Compact Stars from a Gauss-Bonnet Coupling. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2017
We identify a class of scalar-tensor theories with coupling between the scalar and the Gauss-Bonnet invariant that exhibit spontaneous scalarization for both black holes and compact stars.

Scalar democracy [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2019
We conjecture that there exists a scalar bound state for every pair of fundamental fermions at a UV (`composite') scale, $Λ\gg v_{\text{weak}}$. This implies a large number of universally coupled, sub-critical Higgs doublets. All but the Standard Model Higgs are `dormant,' with large positive squared masses and each receives a small vacuum expectation ...

Black hole scalarization with Gauss-Bonnet and Ricci scalar couplings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Spontaneous scalarization is a gravitational phenomenon in which deviations from general relativity arise once a certain threshold in curvature is exceeded, while being entirely absent below that threshold.

On the phase transition mechanism of spontaneous scalarization [PDF]

open access: yes
In certain modified gravity theories that include additional scalar degrees of freedom, compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars may undergo a process known as spontaneous scalarization, in which the scalar field is suddenly activated beyond
