Description

We investigate the properties of soliton stars in the Lee-Wick model when a temperature dependence is introduced into this model. It is found that at some critical temperature Tc ∝ 100-200 MeV, a first order phase transition occurs leading to the formation of soliton stars with some characteristics similar to those considered by Lee and Pang but with much smaller mass and size. When they cool to their cold configuration their mass ∝ 10-6 Msun. (orig.)
