论文摘要
标量化是一种具有标量场构型的强烈自我磨碎物体(例如中子星和黑洞)的机制。它类似于相变,仅当表征紧凑对象(例如其紧凑性或旋转)的一定数量时,标量配置才会出现。对标量的关键而全面的回顾,包括机制本身,表现出它的理论,其在中子恒星,黑洞及其二进制文件中的表现,对其他领域的潜在扩展以及对未来观点的彻底讨论。
Scalarization is a mechanism that endows strongly self-gravitating bodies, such as neutron stars and black holes, with a scalar-field configuration. It resembles a phase transition in that the scalar configuration appears only when a certain quantity that characterizes the compact object, for example, its compactness or spin, is beyond a threshold. A critical and comprehensive review of scalarization, including the mechanism itself, theories that exhibit it, its manifestation in neutron stars, black holes and their binaries, potential extension to other fields, and a thorough discussion of future perspectives, is provided.
