Scalar bosons with Coulomb potentials in a cosmic string background: Scattering and bound states

The relativistic quantum motion of scalar bosons under the influence of a full vector (minimal $A^μ$ and nonminimal $X^μ$) and scalar ($V_{s}$) interactions embedded in the background of a cosmic string is explored in the context of the Klein-Gordon equation. Considering Coulomb interactions, the effects of this topological defect in equation of motion, phase shift and S-matrix are analyzed and discussed. Bound-state solutions are obtained from poles of the S-matrix and it is shown that bound-state solutions are possible only for a restrict range of coupling constants.

Combined Rastall and Rainbow theories of gravity with applications to neutron stars

The possibility of modifications on general relativity is investigated. We propose an alternative theory of gravity constructed with the combination of Rastall and Rainbow theories. The hydrostatic equilibrium equations are obtained in order to test the new theory in neutron stars, whose mass-radius diagrams are obtained using modern equations of state of nuclear matter derived from relativistic mean field models and compared with the ones computed by the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff equations. We conclude that substantial modifications are obtained even for very small alterations on the two free parameters, making the reproduction of astrophysical observations an easy task.
