From Bardeen-boson stars to black holes without event horizon
read the original abstract
In a talk given in 2013, S. Hawking conjectured that the event horizon of black holes does not exist and suggested redefining black holes as bound states of the gravitational field. Inspired by this idea, we investigated the coupling of the Bardeen action and a complex scalar field model. Numerically, we obtained a class of boson stars solutions with the magnetic monopole charge $q$. When the constant $q$ exceeds a certain threshold, we observed that as the frequency approaches zero, a critical position $r_c$ emerges where the scalar field concentrates within its interior. Outside this critical position, these boson star solutions tend to infinitely approach what is known as an extreme black hole. However, there is no event horizon present. While our results are model-dependent and their generality remains uncertain, they align well with Hawking's conjecture that real, regular black holes do not have an event horizon and provided valuable insights into the understanding and development of concepts such as fuzzballs, firewalls and black hole soft hairs.

Polarization images of non-topological soliton Bardeen boson stars
Simulated polarization images of non-topological soliton Bardeen boson stars show that magnetic field geometry and scalar parameters produce distinct Q-U loop fragmentation absent in black hole spacetimes.
