Abstract

A cold Bose star made of self-interacting dilaton particles, non-minimally coupled to gravity, is described. A manifestly scale-invariant theory yields massive objects of stellar size. Conservation of dilatational charge, implemented at the semiclassical level, renders the object highly stable.
