Interacting massive spin-1 fields have been widely used in cosmology and particle physics. We obtain a new condition on the validity of the classical limit of these theories related to the non-trivial constraints that exist for vector field components. A violation of this consistency condition causes a singularity in the time derivative of the auxiliary component and could impact, for example, the field's cosmic history and superradiance around black holes. Such a condition is expected to exist generically in many other non-trivially constrained systems.

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Non-observation of radio bursts from soliton mergers around supermassive black holes constrains dark photon solitons to make up less than about 1% of dark matter, with future surveys reaching 0.2%.

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Nonrelativistic Proca stars have a ground state with constant polarization (linear or circular depending on the sign of the spin-spin coupling), and a symmetry-enhanced sector with λs=0 contains a continuum of multi-f...
