Boson stars and black holes with (complex and) real scalar hair

We discuss boson stars and black holes with scalar hair in a model where the complex scalar field forming the boson star and the hair on the black hole, respectively, interacts with a real scalar field via a H\'enon-Heiles-type potential. We demonstrate that black holes and boson stars carrying only a real scalar field with cubic self-interaction are possible and that black holes with both real and complex scalar field branch off from these solutions for sufficiently large interaction between the two fields and/or sufficiently large horizon radius $r_h$. The latter possess lower mass for the same choice of coupling constants than the former, however seem to be thermodynamically preferred only for high enough temperature.
