Spherically symmetric configurations of General Relativity in presence of scalar fields: separation of circular orbits

We show that the test body stable circular orbits around the spherically symmetric black hole (BH) configuration can form disjoint structures in presence of a minimally coupled nonlinear scalar field. General conditions for the disjoint structures to exist are formulated. To present examples we construct a two-parametric family of exact solutions to Einstein equations with scalar fields for appropriate self-interaction potentials. For different values of the family parameters the solutions describe either BH or naked singularity (NS). We found numerically regions of the parameters when there exist two disjoint regions of stable circular orbits; such nonconnected structures indeed can exist in case of both BH and NS solutions.
