abstract
We investigate the formation, gravitational clustering and interactions of solitons in a self-interacting, non-relativistic scalar field in an expanding universe. Rapid formation of large number of solitons is driven by attractive self-interactions of the field, whereas the slower clustering of solitons is driven by gravitational forces. Driven closer together by gravity, we see a rich plethora of dynamics in the soliton "gas" including mergers, scatterings and formation of soliton binaries. The numerical simulations are complemented by analytic calculations and estimates of (i) the relevant instability length and time scales, (ii) individual soliton profiles and their stability, (iii) number density of produced solitons, and (iv) the two point correlation function of soliton positions as evidence for gravitational clustering.

Gravitationally condensed Proca stars are sizably but not maximally spin-polarized, with core spin set by random elliptical polarization of the dominant mode rather than a universal fraction.
Simulations in Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity show oscillons form with similar properties to standard cases but trigger EFT breakdown for large couplings via high local curvatures.
Deformed alpha-attractor T-models with a Gaussian feature near the minimum yield more smaller shorter-lived oscillons during self-resonance preheating, suppressing energy in oscillons and altering the high-frequency gravitational wave tail while leaving low frequencies unchanged.

Self-resonance preheating in deformed attractor models: oscillon formation and evolution
