Different types of gravitating compact objects occuring in d=5 space-time are considered: boson stars, hairy black holes and perfect fluid solutions. All these solutions of the Einstein equations coupled to matter have well established counterparts in d=4; in particular neutron stars can be modell{S}ed more or less realistically by a perfect fluid. A special emphasis is set on the possibility -and/or the necessity- for these solutions to have an intrinsic angular momentum or spin. The influence of a cosmological constant on their pattern is also studied. Several physical properties are presented from which common features to boson and neutron stars clearly emerge. We finally point out qualitative differences of the gravitational interaction supporting these classical lumps between four and five dimensions.

The present surge for the astrophysical relevance of boson stars stems from the speculative possibility that these compact objects could provide a considerable fraction of the non-baryonic part of dark matter within the halo of galaxies. For a very l
ight `universal axion of effective string models, their total gravitational mass will be in the most likely range of sim 0.5 M_odot of MACHOs. According to this framework, gravitational microlensing is indirectly ``weighing the axion mass, resulting in sim 10^{-10} eV/c^2. This conclusion is not changing much, if we use a dilaton type self-interaction for the bosons. Moreover, we review their formation, rotation and stability as likely candidates of astrophysical importance.
We discuss boson stars and neutron stars, respectively, in a scalar-tensor gravity model with an explicitly time-dependent real scalar field. While the boson stars in our model -- in contrast to the neutron stars -- do not possess a hard core, we fin
d that the qualitative effects of the formation of scalar hair are similar in both cases : the presence of the gravity scalar allows both type of stars to exist for larger central density as well as larger mass at given radius than their General Relativity counterparts. In particular, we find new types of neutron stars with scalar hair which have radii very close to the corresponding Schwarzschild radius and hence are comparable in density to black holes. This new branch of solutions is stable with respect to the decay into individual baryons.
We study equilibrium configurations of a homogenous ball of matter in a bootstrapped description of gravity which includes a gravitational self-interaction term beyond the Newtonian coupling. Both matter density and pressure are accounted for as sour
ces of the gravitational potential for test particles. Unlike the general relativistic case, no Buchdahl limit is found and the pressure can in principle support a star of arbitrarily large compactness. By defining the horizon as the location where the escape velocity of test particles equals the speed of light, like in Newtonian gravity, we find a minimum value of the compactness for which this occurs. The solutions for the gravitational potential here found could effectively describe the interior of macroscopic black holes in the quantum theory, as well as predict consequent deviations from general relativity in the strong field regime of very compact objects.
In a certain class of scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, the black holes and the neutron stars can undergo spontaneous scalarization - a strong gravity phase transition triggered by a tachyonic instability due to the non-minimal coupling between the scalar
field and the spacetime curvature. Studies of this phenomenon have so far been restricted mainly to the study of the tachyonic instability and stationary scalarized black holes and neutron stars. Up to date there has been proposed no realistic physical mechanism for the formation of isolated scalarized black holes and neutron stars. We study for the first time the stellar core collapse to a black hole and a neutron star in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet theories allowing for a spontaneous scalarization. We show that the core collapse can produce scalarized black holes and scalarized neutron stars starting with a non-scalarized progenitor star.
In August 2017, the first detection of a binary neutron star merger, GW170817, made it possible to study neutron stars in compact binary systems using gravitational waves. Despite being the loudest (in terms of signal-to-noise ratio) gravitational wa
ve detected to date, it was not possible to unequivocally determine that GW170817 was caused by the merger of two neutron stars instead of two black holes from the gravitational-wave data alone. That distinction was largely due to the accompanying electromagnetic counterpart. This raises the question: under what circumstances can gravitational-wave data alone, in the absence of an electromagnetic signal, be used to distinguish between different types of mergers? Here, we study whether a neutron-star--black-hole binary merger can be distinguished from a binary black hole merger using gravitational-wave data alone. We build on earlier results using chiral effective field theory to explore whether the data from LIGO and Virgo, LIGO A+, LIGO Voyager, or Cosmic Explorer could lead to such a distinction. The results suggest that the present LIGO-Virgo detector network will most likely be unable to distinguish between these systems even with the planned near-term upgrades. However, given an event with favorable parameters, third-generation instruments such as Cosmic Explorer will be capable of making this distinction. This result further strengthens the science case for third-generation detectors.
