True gravitational atom: Spherical cloud of dilatonic black holes

Black hole as elementary particle is a fairly glamorous idea. For ordinary black holes, a surrounding particle inevitably penetrates into the interior of the hole since the center of the hole is an infinite potential well. For the first time we demonstrate that an extreme dilatonic black hole in spherical symmetry perfectly behaves as an atom, in the sense that its surrounding cloud of particles are completely stable. Thus we reach a spherical cloud of dilatonic black hole. We find exact wave functions of the cloud for arbitrary gravitational fine structure constant $\mu M$, and clear the underlying physical nature of the stability. Through careful studies of the exact wave function, we find the spectrum of this system. We discuss the physical meaning of this discovery especially from considerations of entropy, and the resultant possibility to explore quantization of gravitational waves from coming observations.
