Abstract
The authors study photon geodesics in the gravitational background generated by smooth horizonless topological solitons with the same large distance behaviour as neutral non-rotating black holes. They show that incoming photons experience very high redshift, inducing phenomenological horizon-like behaviors from the point of view of photon scattering. Thus, they provide a compelling case for real-world gravitational solitons and topological alternatives to black holes.
