We investigate Polish doughnuts with a uniform constant specific angular momentum distribution in the space-times of rotating boson stars. In such space-times thick tori can exhibit unique features not present in Kerr space-times. For instance, in the context of retrograde tori, they may possess two centers connected or not by a cusp. Rotating boson stars also feature a static ring, neither present in Kerr space-times. This static ring consists of static orbits, where particles are at rest with respect to a zero angular momentum observer at infinity. Here we show that the presence of a static ring allows for an associated static surface of a retrograde thick torus, where inside the static surface the fluid moves in prograde direction. We classify the retrograde Polish doughnuts and present several specific examples.

In this work we aim to investigate non-mainstream thick tori configurations around Kerr Black Holes with Scalar Hair (KBHsSH). For that goal, we provide a first approach using constant specific angular momentum non-self-gravitating Polish doughnuts. Through a series of examples, we show the feasibility of new topologies, such as double-centered tori with two cusps as well as similar structures as the ones found for rotating Boson Stars (BSs), namely tori endowed with two centers and a single cusp. These KBHsSH solutions are also shown to possibly house static surfaces, associated to the static rings present in these spacetimes. Through this report we highlight the differences between these fluid configurations when housed by some KBHsSH examples, standard Kerr black holes and rotating BSs.
Through detection by low gravitational wave space interferometers, the capture of stars by supermassive black holes will constitute a giant step forward in the understanding of gravitation in strong field. The impact of the perturbations on the motion of the star is computed via the tail, the back-scattered part of the perturbations, or via a radiative Green function. In the former approach, the self-force acts upon the background geodesic, while in the latter, the geodesic is conceived in the total (background plus perturbations) field. Regularisations (mode-sum and Riemann-Hurwitz $zeta$ function) intervene to cancel divergencies coming from the infinitesimal size of the particle. The non-adiabatic trajectories require the most sophisticated techniques for studying the evolution of the motion, like the self-consistent approach.
Ultralight bosons can form large clouds around stellar-mass black holes via the superradiance instability. Through processes such as annihilation, these bosons can source continuous gravitational wave signals with frequencies within the range of LIGO and Virgo. If boson annihilation occurs, then the Galactic black hole population will give rise to many gravitational signals; we refer to this as the ensemble signal. We characterize the ensemble signal as observed by the gravitational-wave detectors; this is important because the ensemble signal carries the primary signature that a continuous wave signal has a boson annihilation origin. We explore how a broad set of black hole population parameters affects the resulting spin-0 boson annihilation signal and consider its detectability by recent searches for continuous gravitational waves. A population of $10^8$ black holes with masses up to $30mathrm{M}_odot$ and a flat dimensionless initial spin distribution between zero and unity produces up to a thousand signals loud enough to be in principle detected by these searches. For a more moderately spinning population the number of signals drops by about an order of magnitude, still yielding up to a hundred detectable signals for some boson masses. A non-detection of annihilation signals at frequencies between 100 and 1200 Hz disfavors the existence of scalar bosons with rest energies between $2times10^{-13}$ and $2.5times10^{-12}$ eV. Finally we show that, depending on the black hole population parameters, care must be taken in assuming that the continuous wave upper limits from searches for isolated signals are still valid for signals that are part of a dense ensemble: Between 200 and 300 Hz, we urge caution when interpreting a null result for bosons between 4 and $6times10^{-13}$ eV.
Compact objects, like neutron stars and white dwarfs, may accrete dark matter, and then be sensitive probes of its presence. These compact stars with a dark matter component can be modeled by a perfect fluid minimally coupled to a complex scalar field (representing a bosonic dark matter component), resulting in objects known as fermion-boson stars. We have performed the dynamical evolution of these stars in order to analyze their stability, and to study their spectrum of normal modes, which may reveal the amount of dark matter in the system. Their stability analysis shows a structure similar to that of an isolated (fermion or boson) star, with equilibrium configurations either laying on the stable or on the unstable branch. The analysis of the spectrum of normal modes indicates the presence of new oscillation modes in the fermionic part of the star, which result from the coupling to the bosonic component through the gravity.
We construct boson stars in (4+1)-dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We study the properties of the solutions in dependence on the coupling constants and investigate these in detail. While the thick wall limit is independent of the value of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling, we find that the spiraling behaviour characteristic for boson stars in standard Einstein gravity disappears for large enough values of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling. Our results show that in this case the scalar field can not have arbitrarily high values at the center of the boson star and that it is hence impossible to reach the thin wall limit. Moreover, for large enough Gauss-Bonnet coupling we find a unique relation between the mass and the radius (qualitatively similar to those of neutron stars) which is not present in the Einstein gravity limit.
