Q-chains in the $U(1)$ gauged Friedberg-Lee-Sirlin model

Abstract

We construct static axially symmetric multi-Q-ball configurations in the $U(1)$ gauged two-component Fridberg-Lee-Sirlin model a flat spacetime. The solutions represent electromagnetically bounded chains of stationary spinning charged Q-balls placed along the axis of symmetry. We discuss the properties of these configurations and exhibit their domain of existence.
