Ghost instabilities in self-interacting vector fields: The problem with proca fields
Massive vector fields feature in several areas of particle physics, eg, as carriers of weak
interactions, dark matter candidates, or an effective description of photons in a plasma. Here …

Spin-induced dynamical scalarization, descalarization, and stealthness in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity during a black hole coalescence
Particular couplings between a scalar field and the Gauss-Bonnet invariant lead to
spontaneous scalarization of black holes. Here, we continue our work on simulating this …
