We report simulations regarding tidal disruption clouds orbiting spherically symmetric compact boson stars in two different regimes. First we consider clouds in three different bound orbits close to the boson star and analyze the mechanisms of debris formation for these. We infer from the simulations that the lifetimes of these hot-spots are longer for circularly orbiting clouds than for clouds on eccentric orbits. Next we compare the evolution of more extended and less dense clouds on circular orbits around a boson star and a Schwarzschild black hole. As an outcome of the simulations we observe the formation of a ring-like structure around the boson star endowed with a spiralling shock structure and a constant thermal bremsstrahlung total luminosity. This final configuration contrasts strongly with the black hole scenario where the gas is totally captured behind the event horizon.

Accretion disks play an important role in the evolution of their relativistic inner compact objects. The emergence of a new generation of interferometers will allow to resolve these accretion disks and provide more information about the properties of
the central gravitating object. Due to this instrumental leap forward it is crucial to investigate the accretion disk physics near various types of inner compact objects now to deduce later constraints on the central objects from observations. A possible candidate for the inner object is the boson star. Here, we will try to analyze the differences between accretion structures surrounding boson stars and black holes. We aim at analysing the physics of circular geodesics around boson stars and study simple thick accretion tori (so-called Polish doughnuts) in the vicinity of these stars. We realize a detailed study of the properties of circular geodesics around boson stars. We then perform a parameter study of thick tori with constant angular momentum surrounding boson stars. This is done using the boson star models computed by a code constructed with the spectral solver library KADATH. We demonstrate that all the circular stable orbits are bound. In the case of a constant angular momentum torus, a cusp in the torus surface exists only for boson stars with a strong gravitational scalar field. Moreover, for each inner radius of the disk, the allowed specific angular momentum values lie within a constrained range which depends on the boson star considered. We show that the accretion tori around boson stars have different characteristics than in the vicinity of a black hole. With future instruments it could be possible to use these differences to constrain the nature of compact objects.
We use gravitational-wave observations of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 to explore the tidal deformabilities and radii of neutron stars. We perform Bayesian parameter estimation with the source location and distance informed by electromagne
tic observations. We also assume that the two stars have the same equation of state; we demonstrate that for stars with masses comparable to the component masses of GW170817, this is effectively implemented by assuming that the stars dimensionless tidal deformabilities are determined by the binarys mass ratio $q$ by $Lambda_1/Lambda_2 = q^6$. We investigate different choices of prior on the component masses of the neutron stars. We find that the tidal deformability and 90$%$ credible interval is $tilde{Lambda}=222^{+420}_{-138}$ for a uniform component mass prior, $tilde{Lambda}=245^{+453}_{-151}$ for a component mass prior informed by radio observations of Galactic double neutron stars, and $tilde{Lambda}=233^{+448}_{-144}$ for a component mass prior informed by radio pulsars. We find a robust measurement of the common areal radius of the neutron stars across all mass priors of $8.9 le hat{R} le 13.2$ km, with a mean value of $langle hat{R} rangle = 10.8$ km. Our results are the first measurement of tidal deformability with a physical constraint on the stars equation of state and place the first lower bounds on the deformability and areal radii of neutron stars using gravitational waves.
Dynamical instabilities in protoneutron stars may produce gravitational waves whose observation could shed light on the physics of core-collapse supernovae. When born with sufficient differential rotation, these stars are susceptible to a shear insta
bility (the low-T/|W| instability), but such rotation can also amplify magnetic fields to strengths where they have a considerable impact on the dynamics of the stellar matter. Using a new magnetohydrodynamics module for the Spectral Einstein Code, we have simulated a differentially-rotating neutron star in full 3D to study the effects of magnetic fields on this instability. Though strong toroidal fields were predicted to suppress the low-T/|W| instability, we find that they do so only in a small range of field strengths. Below 4e13 G, poloidal seed fields do not wind up fast enough to have an effect before the instability saturates, while above 5e14 G, magnetic instabilities can actually amplify a global quadrupole mode (this threshold may be even lower in reality, as small-scale magnetic instabilities remain difficult to resolve numerically). Thus, the prospects for observing gravitational waves from such systems are not in fact diminished over most of the magnetic parameter space. Additionally, we report that the detailed development of the low-T/|W| instability, including its growth rate, depends strongly on the particular numerical methods used. The high-order methods we employ suggest that growth might be considerably slower than found in some previous simulations.
We study the orbital and epicyclic frequencies of particles orbiting around rapidly rotating neutron stars and strange stars in a particular scalar-tensor theory of gravity. We find very large deviations of these frequencies, when compared to their c
orresponding values in general relativity, for the maximum-mass rotating models. In contrast, for models rotating with spin frequency of 700Hz (approximately the largest known rotation rate of neutron stars), the deviations are generally small. Nevertheless, for a very stiff equation of state and a high mass the deviation of one of the epicyclic frequencies from its GR value is appreciable even at a spin frequency of 700Hz. In principle, such a deviation could become important in models of quasi-periodic oscillations in low-mass x-ray binaries and could serve as a test of strong gravity (if other parameters are well constraint). Even though the present paper is concentrated mainly on orbital and epicyclic frequencies, we present here for the first time rapidly rotating, scalarized equilibrium compact stars with realistic hadronic equations of state and strange matter equation of state. We also provide analytical expressions for the exterior spacetime of scalarized neutron stars and their epicyclic frequencies in the nonrotating limit.
We investigate the properties of anisotropic, spherically symmetric compact stars, especially neutron stars and strange quark stars, made of strongly magnetized matter. The neutron stars are described by SLy equation of state, the strange quark stars
by an equation of state based on the MIT Bag model. The stellar models are based on an a priori assumed density dependence of the magnetic field and thus anisotropy. Our study shows that not only the presence of a strong magnetic field and anisotropy, but also the orientation of the magnetic field itself, have an important influence on the physical properties of stars. Two possible magnetic field orientations are considered, a radial orientation, where the local magnetic fields point in the radial direction, and a transverse orientation, where the local magnetic fields are perpendicular to the radial direction. Interestingly, we find that for a transverse orientation of the magnetic field, the stars become more massive with increasing anisotropy and magnetic field strength and increase in size, since the repulsive, effective anisotropic force increases in this case. In the case of a radially orientated magnetic field, however, the masses and radii of the stars decrease with increasing magnetic field strength, because of the decreasing effective anisotropic force. Importantly, we also show that in order to achieve hydrostatic equilibrium configurations of magnetized matter, it is essential to account for both the local anisotropy effects as well as the anisotropy effects caused by a strong magnetic field. Otherwise, hydrostatic equilibrium is not achieved for magnetized stellar models.
