Cover Story: We find self-gravitating lump-like structures that resemble solitonic excitations of scalar fields. Such configurations arise from Lagrangian densities built as powers of the usual kinetic scalar term in (2+1) dimensions. Their localized nature is proven according to a volcano-like energy density distribution that only vanishes at infinity and at an inner boundary. Furthermore, the inner boundary removes a circle from the accessible spatial domain but is characterized by smooth curvatures and complete geodesics. These facts allow us to regard such structures as being truly localized, non-singular lumps of energy whose eventual extension to the real (3+1) dimensional world could potentially yield signatures of astrophysical interest.

In the context of the minimally extended varying speed of light (meVSL) model, both the absolute magnitude and the luminosity distance of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) deviate from those predicted by general relativity (GR). Using data from the Pantheo...

In this paper, we examine the role played by topology, and some specific boundary conditions as well, on the physics of a higher-dimensional black hole. We analyze the line element of a five-dimensional non-extremal Reissner–Nordström blac...

Measurements of magnetic fields near seismic sources during solar flares are vital for understanding the dynamics of solar activity. We used spectropolarimetric observations of the X17.2/4B solar flare on 28 October 2003, over a wavelength interval o...

In the covariant averaging scheme of macroscopic gravity, the process of averaging breaks the metricity of geometry. We reinterpret the back-reaction within macroscopic gravity in terms of the non-metricity of averaged geometry. This interpretation e...
