Abstract
It has recently been revealed [Gervalle and Volkov, Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, 171402 (2024)] that spatially regular bound-state matter configurations which are made of electroweak fields can be supported by magnetically charged black holes of the Einstein-Weinberg-Salam field theory. Intriguingly, it has been demonstrated numerically that the dimensionless mass parameter of cloudy black-hole-field configurations, magnetically charged Reissner-Nordström black holes that support linearized electroweak fields, is characterized by a discrete resonant spectrum (here are respectively the horizon radius and the discrete magnetic parameter of the central black hole and is the mass of the supported W-boson field). In the present paper we explore the excited resonant spectrum of the Einstein-Weinberg-Salam field theory. In particular, using analytical techniques we derive a remarkably compact formula for the low-mass () resonant spectrum of composed weakly magnetized-black-hole-linearized-electroweak-field bound-state configurations. Interestingly, it is shown that the excited black-hole-field resonances are characterized by the simple universal (-independent) relation . Finally, it is explicitly shown that our analytically derived formula for the discrete resonance spectrum of the composed black-hole-field system agrees remarkably well with the corresponding numerical data that recently appeared in the physics literature.
