DOI 10.1103/physrevd.101.024023
Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We study spherically symmetric strongly gravitating configurations supported by nonlinear spinor fields and non-Abelian SU(2) Yang-Mills/Proca magnetic fields. Regular asymptotically flat solutions describing objects with positive Arnowitt-Deser-Misner masses are obtained numerically. When the mass of the spinor fields is much smaller than the Planck mass, we find approximate solutions that can describe systems with total masses comparable to the Chandrasekhar mass and with effective radii of the order of kilometers. For the values of the system free parameters used here, we show that the SU(2) magnetic field always gives a small contribution to the total energy density and mass of the configurations under investigation. From the astrophysical point of view, one can regard such objects as magnetized Dirac stars.
